    Armenia : EU Cooperation Capacity Building of Center for
    Ecological-Noosphere Studies of National Academy of Sciences of
    Armenia: Towards Armenias integration into the ERA Project


    The central goal of EcoArm2ERA is to reinforce the international
    research cooperation between Armenian leading institute in
    environmental and ecological studies CENS and ERA in the critically
    important areas, specifically FP7 Themes as Environment, KBBE and
    Space (e.g. GIS technologies for environment)). This goal will be
    attained through pursuit of the following specific objectives:


    Objective 1: To define and promote a sustainable development strategy
    for the Armenian CENS focusing on the overall improvement of the
    institutions capacities, visibility, and competitiveness.

    Objective 2: To develop a strategic partnership between CENS and (i)
    the School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Policy, Earth
    Sciences Institute, University College Dublin (NUID UCD), and (ii) the
    Institute of Environmental Sciences, University of Geneva (UNIGE). To
    build a CENS capacity to acquire and carry out international
    collaborative research partnerships.

    Objective 3: To build the competencies needed by Armenian researchers
    and staff members in order to participate in the FP7/FP8 programme.

    EcoArm2ERA brings together top-level partners from both ERA and
    Armenia: CENS created with the mission to integrate the Armenian
    research capabilities in the field of environment and sustainable
    development. CENS will be main beneficiary of the project. CENS will
    be directly supported through its European twinning partners: NUID UCD
    Earth Sciences Institute of the University College Dublin and
    Institute of Environmental Sciences, University of Geneva, who will
    provide and open up their scientific and networking capabilities and
    serve as strategic link to the European RTD community. Last but not
    least, the consortium is accomplished by GIRAF (a specialist training
    provider and project management expert with expertise in institutional
    development and organisation).
