Happening today and tomorrow!

Today was launched the Kosovo Research Information System (KRIS) (www.kris.rks-gov.net) supported by the ResearchCult Erasmus+ funded project, in collaboration with project, and Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (MESTI).
KRIS has been built as a repository and regulatory system to collect data and generate statistics about research indicators in Kosovo, in five main modules: Research institutions, Researchers – and their publications/research portfolio, Research infrastructure, Research projects/funding, and Research journals – open access.
This has been one of the main project milestones, contributing to the Kosovo's enhanced systematic research data and information.

ResearchCult Project Coordinator, Bujar Gallopeni, and professor from project partner University of Sapienza, FIorenza Deriu, met with all university partners in Kosovo to discuss progress and implementation of project Work Package 2 activities, which supported universities to Establish and increase capacities of Research Support Offices, development of research office regulations, and development of the university research strategic plans.
