Launch of the HRS4R Label Action Plan

Last May, Université Côte d’Azur was awarded the HRS4R (Human Resources Strategy for Researchers) certification.
The project team, led by Ms. Van de Bor, VP of Social Policy, Equality, and Diversity, presented the implementation of its action plan on June 15 at the St. Jean D’Angely Campus.
The participants, who are stakeholders in the project (administrative departments, research units, researchers), contributed to the development of this action plan, with the following agenda:
 

Project Scope 

• vision/objectives, 
• roles and responsibilities of stakeholders, 
• operating procedures

 Collaborative “World Café” workshops (5 themes for 5 groups)   

1. How can we better communicate about existing resources? 
2. How can we ensure that researchers take ownership of resources and tools? 
3. How can we strengthen researchers’ involvement in the implementation of HRS4R? 
4. How can we create a true collaborative working group between Research and Support Services? 
5. How can we make HRS4R a real asset in attracting students to the University?       

Summary and Sharing 

At the end of the day, a summary of the ideas and discussions was presented in the presence of Ms. LOUFRANI, Vice President for Human Resources and Organizational Development; Mr. DIMARCQ, Vice President for Research and Innovation; and Mr. TRIC, Vice President for Institutional Affairs and Resources.
