SOC (formerly SCSS) MOCEE Final Conference

 

 

MOCEE Final Conference, Budapest (HU), 2 December 2008

IN MOTION

COOPERATION OF EAST AND WEST IN EUROPEAN SOCIAL SCIENCE

In 2006, the European Science Foundation launched the project “Member Organisations in Central and Eastern Europe” or MOCEE in abbreviated form. Its objective was to find new and more efficient ways of the internationalisation of social sciences in Central and Eastern Europe. The project has been managed as a Member Organisation Forum, that is, a scheme where ESF Member Organisations and their representatives could discuss the issues of the internal life of science, exchange best practice and ideas about international cooperation. This MO Forum has had Central and Eastern Europe and social sciences as targets, and, consequently, the Member Organisations and the social scientists from the region played the most active roles in the project.
After two years, it is time to sum up what the project has reached and also to look forward: at the initiatives springing from the efforts of MOCEE. Thus, the conference will be “final” because its objective is to complete the project, but this finalisation is to be the beginning of a number of new programmes and projects. The participants will evaluate the results, discuss the initiatives and the possibilities of cooperation on a higher level, also the question whether MOCEE has had some message and lessons beyond social sciences and beyond the Central and Eastern European region.

The MOCEE final conference is hosted by the Hungarian Scientific Research Fund (OTKA). It will follow "The Technical Aspects of Peer-Reviewer Databases" Workshop, Budapest (HU), 1 December 2008.
