EU provides Moldovan institute with HR Excellence in Research logo

Chisinau, 8 September /MOLDPRES/ - The European Commission has recently provided the Chisinau-based National Institute for Economic Research (INCE) the logo HR Excellence in Research. This is the first institute of Moldova's science and innovation sector to be given the aforementioned certification, according to a press release by the Academy of Sciences of Moldova. 

INCE head Alexandru Stratan said the Hr Excellence in Research logo showed that INCE had aligned  with the practices and rules provided for in the European Charter for Researches and Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.  

„The most important fact is that, by providing this logo, we are trustworthy for potential partners, with whom we might create consortia, in order to participate in various research projects. By getting this certification, partners from abroad are fully confident that the institution with which they are set to cooperate has already passed a filter and is recommended as a reliable partner by the European Commission,” Stratan said.  

So far, 120 universities and research institutions from the European Union have got right to display the HR Excellence in Research logo. This is allowed by the European Commission only following a complex and long-lasting evaluation process.
