SAFE develops, implements and tests a fellowship scheme to integrate at-risk researchers in Europe. Considering a declining academic freedom worldwide, the project addresses the increasing need to offer at-risk researchers an opportunity to relocate to the EU and continue their work in a safe environment.
For this purpose, a pilot project is being implemented offering up to 60 fellowships for PhD/doctoral and postdoctoral researchers of any non-EU nationality to work at higher education and research institutions based in the EU for up to 24 months.
Researchers are selected on the basis of the scientific excellence of their proposed research, the danger they face in their country of origin, as well as the quality of the hosting measures offered by their potential host institution. The project recommendations will support the establishment of a permanent European support mechanism for researchers at risk.
