Challenges addressed by the project
In response to the evolving landscape of the European Research Area, which is marked by numerous societal changes affecting the dynamics between science and society, the PATTERN project emerges. This 42-months EU-funded initiative under HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01 call (2024-2027) with a grant of 3.499.742,50 € is dedicated to promoting the practice of Open and Responsible Research and Innovation by developing and piloting training activities for researchers at all stages of their careers.
Main project objective/mission
PATTERN will strengthen transferable skills with the ultimate goal to empower higher education institutions and research organisations to embrace a transformative process aimed at enhancing the excellence of the science. Personalised training plans will be co-developed in 8 key areas: Open Access, FAIR Data Management, Citizen Science, Research Integrity, Gender, Non-Discrimination and Inclusion in Research, Dissemination and Exploitation of Results, Science Communication, Management and Leadership.

Benefits for EARMA community
The EARMA community of research managers and administrators will benefit from this initiative by contributing to:
- The identification of gaps in terms of training, leading to the establishment of training material within the project which enables the community to improve needed skills to meet current requirements of the profession.
- The development of training activities through establishing a platform and identifying the potential for new training activities for researchers at all stages of their careers.
- The design of policy recommendations for researchers’ training on Open, Responsible, and Innovation practice. These recommendations will be based on the results of the activities undertaken within the project.
