ESPON Partner Finding - Outside the UK
24-May-10
The purpose of this page is to assist UK researchers in finding partners outside the UK for the ESPON calls launched in May 2010 to form a Transnational Project Group (TPG) which would then bid for ESPON resources. While the ESPON UK Contact Point exists to offer general support to the UK community, please note that all formal queries and applications must be addressed directly to the ESPON EU Coordination Unit (info@espon.eu).

Roberto Camagni is searching for a UK team willing to join the TPG he is leading on the EATIA call. The British team should mainly deal with collecting information on TIA (or similar) traditions and experiences in England, being the interface with the British Ministry (of environment and regions?) (which is the Lead stakeholder) and help transferring and improving the existing ESPON TIA model (the Tequila model) to the British context.
