The ULiège European Archaeometry Centre celebrates its 20th anniversary
Created in 2003, the CEA conducts and federates cutting-edge research and teaching and collaborates with renowned partners throughout the world.
As a public university open to the world and is anchored in the scientific, cultural and economic development of its region, the University of Liège relies on its three pillars: teaching, research and civic engagement.
ULiège trains responsible citizens who are provided with cutting-edge knowledge and critical thinking, are able to share knowledge and can push forward an increasingly complex world.
ULiège develops and promotes excellence in research, multidisciplinary and direct engagement with its instruction.
ULiège: an experience of daily living. Located in 3 cities and 4 campuses, the university is a key player in terms of the environment and mobility.
Following the call for projects of the European structural funds ERDF-ESF+ (European Regional Development Fund - European Social Fund) for the 2021-2027 programming period, the Walloon Government has recently confirmed the list of selected projects. At the end of this final selection, 33 of them are supported by the University of Liege, for a total funding of nearly € 33 million for ERDF projects and nearly € 3 million for ESF projects, for a total of nearly € 36 million.
A
total of 688 projects have been selected in Wallonia: 374 for the ERDF (European Regional Development Fund) and 314 for the ESF (European Social Fund). They represent a total investment of 1.357 billion euros in Wallonia. The selected projects are co-financed by the EU, Wallonia (or the FWB or the COCOF depending on the type of project) and the selected operators.
Among the 688 selected projects, 27 ERDF projects and 6 ESF projects are led by the University of Liege.
This result for ULiège is the fruit of intense collaboration between researchers, external partners (universities, colleges, companies, associations and public administrations), the ULiège authorities, its financial resources administration and the RISE service (Research, Innovation, Support and Enterprises).
With all the projects it coordinates or participates in, ULiège intends to be fully involved in its Region, and in particular in the provinces of Liège, Luxembourg and Namur, where it is located.
"I would like to congratulate our research and administrative teams for obtaining this funding, which is essential for implementing innovative solutions for the region's socio-economic development. This significant result for the research teams involved demonstrates that our Institution wishes to occupy a central place and become a privileged partner in research for all industrial and private partners in the Region" Michel Moutschen, Vice-rector for Research, ULiège
"The coordination work and especially the mobilization of researchers were essential upstream to obtain this result. This program was a real challenge for our teams. Although we would have liked to see a favourable outcome for all the projects submitted, this result is a real success for all the research teams involved. We are looking forward to working with the project leaders to implement these ambitious projects and valorize their results. We remain at the disposal of the research teams for which the projects were not selected to accompany them in their search for funding." Didier Mattivi, Director RISE, ULiège
"The positioning of the University of Liège with the smart specialization strategy of Wallonia and strengthened collaboration with the whole Walloon ecosystem (administrations, LIEU network, professors, and University authorities) were the keys to this result. The quality of all the projects submitted is exciting and suggests new prospects for project development, including outside the framework of this call." Isabelle Rausin, Head of ERDF, IIS & Recovery Plan Project Development, RISE, ULiège
