This project will bring together researchers and the general public in an informal and festive manner under the banner of the Researchers' Night 2013. The objective is to broaden the public's understanding of the effect and importance that research has in our lives and to address possible stereotypical views on researchers and their work. This will be done by arranging a range of activities on September 27, 2013, which facilitate interaction between researchers and the public. A number of activities are planned to accomplish this objective revolving around the theme Food. The European Corner will be centrally placed in the venue, where the European aspect of the event will be highlighted and promotional material on European Research will be presented. Science Café, Science Show, guided tour, exhibitions, debates, hands on experiments and announcements of winners of a drawing and research dissemination competition are also among the activities that will lead to the accomplishment of the objective of the project. To ensure that a maximum number of people will be aware of the festivities on the Researchers’ Night, a comprehensive awareness campaign will be planned. A Researchers’ Night Newspaper will be distributed to all households in the Faroe Islands. Other awareness activates such as posters, banners, press coverage, social media and internet facilitation will are part of the campaign. A comprehensive impact assessment will be conducted of the different parts of the project. To manage the project the sole applicant has set up an advisory committee that will ensure a smooth and effective planning and implementation of the project.

In Portugal there is high quality research in the areas of Water and Biodiversity, as well as a vast range of researchers responsible for projects of international relevance in these subjects. However, these results are still largely unknown by the general public. Knowledge and recognition exist only in academia and not in public opinion, which is still distant from active participation in science. It is therefore important to bring science and researchers closer to the public and make the community understand and recognise their societal role. For this purpose, the SCIENCE WATERPARK project intends to organize activities that focus on the public at large and in bringing scientists in direct contact with citizens. Seeking to demystify the idea that science and research are only for some enlightened as well as to demonstrate that it is fun and fascinating, the project SCIENCE WATERPARK was designed to tackle the existing stereotypes about researchers and their profession, and to the public at large better understand the central role of researchers and the key benefits they bring to society. The project was developed around the theme science for water and biodiversity and the vast array of interconnections, interdependencies and mutual influences that cover these important knowledge areas, which makes them increasingly relevant subjects for both scientists and general public. It is straightforward to see nowadays the undeniable importance of these themes, their almost permanent presence in everyday life of human societies that depend on them in multiple strands as well as to understand the danger of exhausting such resources. Because we intend to enhance public recognition of researchers and their work we believe that water and biodiversity are perfect subjects to attract public attention, contributing to make the public at large more aware of the relevance of researchers´ work as well as their contribution to preserve our world.

Researchers´ Night 2013 Czech Republic is based on the performance of scientists as ordinary people who are in essence no different from the general public. The goal is to bring together the public at large and researchers to improve the image of researchers and to strengthen the public recognition in the scientific work in a funny way. The next goal is to stimulate young people's interest in scientific careers through this event. This year's motto for RN2013CZ is "Energy to knowledge." Energy will become the common element across the venues of the Researchers´ Night in the Czech Republic. The theme of "Energy to knowledge" will demonstrate not only the importance of science and scientists who convey us energy in those various forms but also their efforts needed to be done in scientific research. As one of the ideas that will fulfil the theme "Energy to knowledge" is accompanied by its savings or perhaps thinking of energy as an important element in our lives with whom we should be treated objectively, when taking into account the aspects of responsible research and innovation. The goal is to make each venue focused on the presentation of energy, according to the direction of each participants´ research and activities. Visitors of RN2013CZ will have the opportunity to explore the scientific work, have fun and share their leisure time with the scientists. Anyone regardless of age and scientific skills will be able to participate in experiments, watch demonstrations, take part in competitions or just enjoy having fun with researchers. The role of the European Commission in supporting this particular event will be described and the EC will be presented as an institution that continuously and largely supports research Europe-wide.

Seen through the eyes of our visitors, the Dutch ERN is a unique night out, with experiments in new science, new art and new music. You can contribute to live science, enjoy art, see performances, hear talks, have drinks, play games, dance to live music and DJs - among young people, in a party atmosphere. Through the eyes of a science communicator Discovery Festival, the Dutch edition of the 2013 ERN, is an innovative event that reaches an important, difficult target group by combining new science and young scientists with a high quality art program and top notch nightlife activities. We aim to improve the public image of ‘the scientist’, by seducing people to associate ‘science’ and ‘scientist’ with values like ‘new’ and ‘creative’ instead of, ‘serious’ and ‘dull’. To achieve this, we consciously pay attention to the person of the scientist and the process of science. It is about the ‘who’, the ‘how’ and the ‘why’, not just the ‘what’. Moreover, we explicitly define our target group to be broader than just the visitors of the event. We successfully use the media to reach more people with the messages ‘Young scientists organise a trendy festival’ and ‘Science can be great content for a night out on the town’. After 6 editions in Amsterdam only, Discovery Festival successfully piloted the RN in 3 cities in 2012. This year, we will improve the 3 local editions. Next to that, we will simplify the organisation to become more efficient and to make it ready for future growth. This means we aim for a significantly larger and broader audience and impact, and less overhead. Discovery Festival has become a household name in the Netherlands, and the organisation is using its experience to inspire, stimulate and help others to contribute to the overall goals of the call.

This proposal aims to raise awareness of the prominent role researchers and how their work plays in our currently every day and for the future. Bearing in mind Horizon 2020 Societal Challenges, the ERN2013 will promote and disseminate what in terms of science and innovation is being done in Portugal. The extensive and nationwide range of activities already planned and being prepared have one major aim: to show that researchers are ordinary people with extraordinary jobs! This will be done through direct engagement of both the general public and researchers in science awareness, across 26 main cities and villages in several venues. Coordinated by Ciência Viva (Lisbon), there is a regional coordinator in each NUTS II region in Portugal. The role of each regional coordinator is to mobilize the research community, local companies and associations, as well as regional/local press, using the same coordination rational from 2012. This is an inclusive proposal welcoming all interest research-related entities. The key message agreed between partners and all associated/participating entities is that we should take up this opportunity to bring research close to the people and not only expect that people come to a specific venue. Outdoor activities will be organized in partnership with municipalities/regional authorities as an added value of their service and a way to show the richness existing in each territory. In parallel, a very diverse range of edutainment indoor activities is planned and more are on the making.

The Gupta dynasty dominated South Asia during the 4th and 5th centuries. Their period was marked by political stability and an astonishing florescence in every field of endeavor. The Gupta kingdom and its networks had an enduring impact on India and a profound reach across Central and Southeast Asia in a host of cultural, religious and socio-political spheres. Sometimes characterized as a ‘Golden Age’, this was a pivotal moment in Asian history. The Guptas have received considerable scholarly attention over the last century, as have, separately, the kingdoms of Central and Southeast Asia. Recent advances notwithstanding, knowledge and research activity are fragmented by entrenched disciplinary protocols, distorted by nationalist historiographies and constrained by regional languages and associated cultural and political agendas. Hemmed in by modern intellectual, geographical and political boundaries, the diverse cultures, complex polities and varied networks of the Gupta period remain specialist subjects, little-mentioned outside area studies and traditional disciplinary frameworks. The aim of this project is to work beyond these boundaries for the first time and so recover this profoundly influential dispensation, presenting it as a vibrant entity with connections across several regions and sub-continental areas. To address this aim, four researchers have formed an interdisciplinary team spanning linguistics, history, religious studies, geography, archaeology, Indology, Sinology and GIS/IT technologies. This team will establish a scientific laboratory in London and Leiden that will generate the synergies needed to delineate and assess the significance of the Gupta Age and its pan-Asian impacts. The project's wider objective is to place Central,South and Southeast Asia on the global historical stage, significantly influence practices in Asian research and support EU leadership in Asian studies.

UNI-SET is a partnership action led by EUA-EPUE and EIT KIC InnoEnergy and involving other relevant existing networks that will seek to mobilise the university sector to realise its full potential through pooling the richness and diversity of its expertise in research and education and directing its efforts towards addressing common goals. The overall strategy of the UNI-SET is to achieve an “open and neutral platform” to enhance the visibility of, and access to, the substantial capacities of Europe’s universities in research, innovation and education and training in the energy field in order to maximise their contribution to the SET-PLAN. The support action is organised in two main phases of implementation. Firstly, a mapping exercise which will involve the design of questionnaires, data collection and its analysis and development work on an internet-based information system allowing future self up-dating by universities. Secondly, the selection and launching of cluster activities aimed at achieving critical masses of experience and knowledge exchange in areas of core competencies in research, education and training in SET-PLAN topics and related areas. Clustering activities identified through the mapping will aim to reduce fragmentation of research and training capacities. Emphasis will be placed on profiling Masters and Doctoral candidates for greater opportunities for their future career development. UNI-SET will offer timely strategic support on a European level to the review of university competencies as many universities are now creating energy-focussed research and training centres drawing expertise from across existing faculties and involving partnerships with industry and other external actors. Horizontal activities to facilitate coordination and information flow among universities and other stakeholders in the SET-PLAN, and to mobilise university expert input to relevant EC initiatives and consultations on energy-related matters will be organised.

Science has always been enough of an inspiration for the Society to embrace it, invest in it, and utilize it. It is again the inspiration for us to embark on proposing the project under the Researchers’ Night 2013 call, after AWAREs – All We Are Researchers project I, II, and III. This project proposal is inspired by senses and engaging our senses in relating to the Science and the World in general. The project proposal under the title Six Senses of Science (SoS ) is about turning on the senses and uniting energies in enhancing the public recognition of researchers, offering the public at large, regardless of their age and scientific background, the opportunity of discovering the "human face" of research. SoS project will show and prove the impact of research on our daily lives via direct exchanges and discussions with the researchers, who will help us better understand the scientific chain of cause-effect-result. The project will bring the researchers and public closer to one another, showing researchers’ usual activities and day-to-day work as well as hobbies, hopes and dreams. Bearing in mind that the senses make a basis of human perception, the main idea of the project is to offer multidisciplinary and innovative perception of the science, engaging all of the senses we are given at birth: sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. But, only some of us are endowed with one more special and yet controversial sense – the sixth sense! The extrasensory perception we also call a gut instinct, sometimes hunch. This being the inspiration for our project, we aim to present the researchers and research through the Six Senses of Science approach: Option 1 Sense of Science #1: Smell the Science Sense of Science #2: Hear about (ask and talk) science Sense of Science #3: See the science Sense of Science #4: Taste the science Sense of Science #5: Touch the science by doing it Sense of Science #6: Connect and Exchange Science
