We want to thank all SPP project members for their mid-term reports. They have been put on our website so we can show the progress that has been made in the SPP. This way we can easily update ourselves on the current status of the partner projects.
It is recommended that you have a look at
your published report to check the format and content and
report all errors to Emanuel Kästle (emanuel.kaestle@fu-berlin.de).
To keep you updated on the ongoing activities and
deadlines of the SPP we give here an overview of the most
important dates. SPP related events/dates are highlighted.
The 4DMB steering committee convened on the 13th
of February to plan upcoming SPP events and to prepare the call
for the 2nd round of this SPP. A short meeting summary appears on
our website.
Special funds for parents and
female researchers
As part of our SPP, we have access to special
funds to support parents and female researchers with the aim to
promote gender equality. These funds can be used to by female
researchers to visit conferences that can otherwise not be paid
for from the project budget or to take part in networking or
mentoring activities. Parents can use these funds to pay for
child care during conferences, field trips or vacations but also
to create a home office or to employ a HiWi. More information
(in German) can be found here.
If you want to make use of this opportunity do not hesitate to
contact either Mark (mark.handy@fu-berlin.de)
or Emanuel (emanuel.kaestle@fu-berlin.de).
Best regards,
Emanuel, Mark and Michael
