Resources

The following table summarizes the requested funding. The activities are:

  1. General meetings: see 3.1.1.
  2. Specialist meetings: see 3.1.2.
  3. Visits: visit of a member of ModelAge to one of the participating sites, to study some specific topic in collaboration with local members. The work programme of any visit must be approved by a specialist group leader or by the coordinator, to ensure integration into the overall research of the group.
  4. Presentations: presentation of the on-going results of ModelAge to scientific conferences so as to ensure external dissemination (see 3.2.2). Due to funding limitations presentations will be unfunded, in spite of their importance.
  5. Management:

The average cost of travel considered is 350 ECU; the average cost of accommodation is 100 ECU/day. These refunds are also bounded according to Annex II, appendix 1. The number of activities is described in 3.1. Each activity involves funded participants (a subset of the members) and unfunded participants (either members that cannot be funded due to budget limitations, local members, or non-members participating in the workshops). The organisation cost of the activity is mentioned under ECU/organ: it includes renting of rooms (if needed) and printing of workshop handouts. The total cost of one occurrence of the activity is indicated under ECU/meeting. The total is thus obtained by multiplying by the number of activities.

Internal budget procedures: each site is allocated a yearly budget for covering travel and accommodation for their members for visits and meetings. The other expenses (management costs, presentations, meeting organisation) are allocated on the central budget, controlled by the coordinator. A budget repartition is decided each year by the coordinator. (as mentioned above, the Board can take the initiative to modify this budget repartition). Meetings normally take place at a member site, but the coordinator can grant exceptions when in the interest of the Working Group.
