Within the framework of the France 2030 call for proprosals, Université Paris Cité is the recipient of a funding scheme in the “Accelerating the development strategies of higher education and research establishments” (ASDESR). The HARVEST project will support the development of lifelong learning and the implementation of European projects, with a budget of €11.11 million for a 10-year commitment.

Raising attractiveness

The HARVEST (Holistic Acceleration Roadmap for Vocational training and European participation STrategy) project focuses on improving the university’s attractiveness and achievements in the areas of vocational training support as well as developing and submitting European projects at the central and faculty levels.

The international jury particularly appreciated the high overall quality of the proposal, the path proposed and the human resources deployment policy foreseen. The latter includes the recruitment of 30 specialised agents, with the first phase to be launched in 2023.

Supporting Vocational Training & European Research Projects

The resources allocated by the project will support the creation, enhancement and promotion of Université Paris Cité’s vocational training. It will also contribute to supporting European research and funding opportunities, as well as identifying potential sources of funding.

The vocational training dimension of the project will focus on the certification, hybridisation and digitisation of existing training offerings, while increasing their visibility and promotion through an appropriate marketing strategy.
