Our alliance is founded on long-standing collaboration and strong connections across various initiatives and stakeholders. By consolidating and expanding the virtual inter-university campus and by providing mobility opportunities, we can create a more effective and collaborative research community that will benefit all European researchers. We currently focus on six multi-disciplinary academic areas:
Una Europa Helsinki Researcher Mobility Instrument is a program designed to support researchers at the University of Helsinki who are looking to establish new connections with colleagues at partner institutions within the alliance.
The researcher mobility instrument awards funding for researchers at the University of Helsinki to travel for 5-15 days to one of the Una Europa partner institutions. The funding is intended to cover costs related to transportation, accommodation, and other expenses associated with mobility.
The online application form will open on 5 January 2026 and close on 13 February 2026 at 23:59.
Researchers interested in applying for the mobility instrument can find more information about eligibility criteria, deadlines, and necessary documentation behind the link below.
Una Europa launches an annual call for applications for seed funding. The aim of the seed funding initiative is to support the initiation of long-term collaborative activities between the partner universities. The idea is to "plant a seed" that can eventually attract external funding.
Funding for postdocs within the Una Europa Alliance.
The Toolkit is designed to assist researchers at any career stage who want to learn more about citizen science initiatives. With insights from 8 citizen science experts from Una Europa partner universities, the Toolkit offers a range of perspectives and expertise on various aspects of citizen science, from project design and funding to citizen engagement, and even long-term sustainability.
