International Cooperation
International Organizations
FCT supports and follows the participation of the scientific and
technological community in the international organizations of which Portugal
is a member. The resulting benefits for the scientific and technological
community include the access of national teams to international scientific
infrastructures, increased industry competitiveness, access to training
programs and calls for scientific or management positions in international
organizations.
FCT also ensures national representation in the management bodies of
international organizations and promotes and follows the process of joining
these organizations.
