International cooperation through the participation of organisations from non-associated third countries is strongly encouraged.Support is provided for international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary mobility of R&I staff leading to knowledge transfer between participating organisations.Mobility through secondmentsThe organisations constituting the partnership contribute directly to the implementation of a joint R&I project by seconding and/or hosting eligible staff members. Such a project must explore activities that can be based on previous work but should go beyond and generate or strengthen long-term collaborations. Secondments must involve physical mobility[1] of the eligible staff members and must always take place between legal entities independent from each other.MSCA Staff Exchanges can address different dimensions of mobility: international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary[2].
