How are applications assessed ?
Applications are assessed by PAUSE scientific committee on the basis of the following criteria:
- The level of urgency and threat faced by the applicant;
- The quality of the scientific or artistic project;
- The quality of the social and professional integration support scheme for the applicant.
- Neutralize the applicant's identity documents provided (passport, residence permit), by adding the word "specimen" to these documents. This will prevent identity theft in case of interception of identity documents online;
- Use only the secure application platform to apply and do not send any application by e-mail. Only applications submitted on the platform will be examined by the PAUSE programme;
- Contact the PAUSE team in case of particular confidentiality constraints in order to set up a secure procedure for e-mail exchanges.
| Incomplete applications will not be considered |
The PAUSE steering committee selects the applications on the basis of the proposals of the scientific committee. The committee is sovereign in its decisions.
