Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA)

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) are among the European Union’s flagship funding programmes for researcher training, mobility, and career development. Designed to support researchers and institutions across all scientific disciplines, MSCA promotes international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral collaboration, helping to develop research excellence, strengthen innovation capacity, and foster global research networks.

The MSCA programme offers a range of funding schemes addressing different stages of the research and innovation ecosystem, including Postdoctoral Fellowships (PF) for experienced researchers seeking to advance their careers through international mobility, Doctoral Networks (DN) for training the next generation of doctoral candidates through structured research and training programmes, Staff Exchanges (SE) supporting knowledge transfer and collaboration through the mobility of research and innovation staff, and COFUND actions co-financing regional, national, and international fellowship and doctoral training programmes.

At EFMC, we provide expert support across all MSCA funding schemes, including PF, DN, SE, and COFUND. Our services include proposal development, scientific reviews, consortium building, strategic guidance, proposal optimisation, training, and project implementation support. Drawing on extensive experience in MSCA evaluation and proposal development, we help researchers, universities, research organisations, and consortia develop highly competitive applications that demonstrate excellence, impact, and implementation quality while preserving the scientific vision and ownership of each project.
