RBL Symposium’s Virtual Exhibition
 

 
RBL'22 is over but the virtual exhibition continues! In the symposium, there was a session dedicated to the EELISA communities and the project teams of the EELISA students. As part of the symposium, a virtual exhibition is designed by the ITU team, which will allow the communities and the project teams to share their projects and works. The virtual exhibition will be available for two years and will be used for further student-based events. If you were unable to join the exhibit, don't worry! Reach us via e-mail to join in with your work. Please contact us at eelisa@itu.edu.tr
 
 
First InnoCORE R&I Symposium
 

 
Research and innovation experts met at ITU in Istanbul to discuss how to deepen collaboration in research, innovation and entrepreneurship across the Alliance. Participants had the opportunity to get to know better how EELISA partners organise their research support services and structures, particularly regarding the support offered for applying for international calls and management of R&I projects. The support offered to researchers —e.g. regarding IPR management, legal and financial issues, or aspects such as open science— is key when encouraging researchers to apply for external funds. Therefore, learning from each other and joining forces will prove key to promoting joint research at EELISA-level.
 
 
 
EELISA Statement on Gender Equality
 

 
As an expression of our Alliance’s commitment to the shared values of democracy, diversity, inclusion and gender equality, one of the main outcomes of the last EELISA Governing Board, held on 21 and 22 April 2022 in Pisa, was the signature of the EELISA Alliance Statement on Gender Equality. This document, drawing on the findings of the Gender Equality Plan produced under EELISA InnoCORE (SwafS-H2020), was drafted by the Alliance’s Gender workgroup with the goal of making our higher education institutions more inclusive places, closing the gender gap in STEM fields and inspiring gender equality plans and actions across and beyond EELISA.

Knowledge Bites #11: The EELISA Community Platform
 

 
The aim of this EELISA knowledge bite is to inform community coordinators, members and other interested users on how to use the EELISA Community platform. This includes, for example, features included on the platform as well as login, administration and approval processes.
 
 
BEE'NOME for Disaster Management
 

 
The design of the disaster management module of BEE'NOME has been prioritized due to the earthquake disaster. Directing ITU resources to the disaster areas in a targeted manner will be made easier if you choose the keywords and the role as a member of the platform.
