Summary

TwinSubDyn aims to establish a research knowledge hub at UNSPMF, Serbia, on the impacts of organic soil amendments (OSA) on the fate of contaminant-, and nutrient dynamics in the soil subsurface and implications for groundwater quality. The project will significantly boost research and innovation capacities of UNSPMF, through a twinning action with internationally-leading research institutions in this research field from Europe, i.e. UNIVIE, FZJ, MLU and IRNAS-CSIC. The strategy for stepping up and stimulating scientific excellence and innovation capacity for our TwinSubDyn defined research topic is based on: (1) Networking for Excellence - through transfer of knowledge, best practice and expertise during secondments, between UNSPMF and the aforementioned research institutions; (2) Establishment of long-lasting strategic partnerships with leading European research organisations; (3) Raising the EU and global research profile of UNSPMF and its staff - through delivering lectures by experts, short-term on-site training, organization of workshop/summer school and strengthening the research management and administration unit at UNSPMF; (4) Development of Science and Innovation Strategy and key action planning in the TwinSubDyn field for UNSPMF; (5) Spreading scientific knowledge through the available multiple dissemination channels, and finally (6) Increasing overall competence via the strategic collaborative consortium TwinSubDyn research project and its intrinsic knowledge exchange and gains.
