De la pratique basée sur les évidences aux évidences basées sur la pratique… Comment nous assurer que la recherche, l’innovation et l’apprentissage ne sont pas dans une suite séquentielle mais plutôt dans une interdépendance symbiotique?

The thirty-seventh of the weekly series of posts about “the book” (The Emerald Handbook of Research Management and Administration Around the World) The Profession of Research Management and Administration in the Caribbean Community by professor Paul W. Ivey https://lnkd.in/efsyM43e This second North American chapter in the Countries section covers RMA in the Caribbean. ChatGPT summary of the chapter: The research ecosystem in the English-speaking Caribbean, particularly within the 20-member CARICOM, is characterized by limited funding, capacity challenges, and a reliance on higher education institutions (HEIs) and state agencies for research activities. Key entities, such as the University of the West Indies, University of Technology, Jamaica, and the University of Trinidad & Tobago, focus on areas like agriculture, health, and technology. Research is constrained by limited funding, high teaching loads, and a lack of formal structures. The Caribbean Research and Innovation Management Association (CabRIMA) aims to professionalize research management, improve capacity, and foster regional collaboration. Despite progress, challenges include inadequate resourcing, training gaps, and low regional research outputs compared to global standards. You can of course read the whole book, chapter by chapter, online for free. https://lnkd.in/dNdEYsRj Or if you are desperate to own a hardcopy then use code EME30 at the checkout at Emerald Books: https://lnkd.in/erGU-4tS International Network of Research Management Societies NCURA: National Council of University Research Administrators Society of Research Administrators International Australasian Research Management Society (ARMS) Southern African Research and Innovation Management Association (SARIMA) BRAMA Brazil - Associação Brasileira de Gestão e Administração de Pesquisa Científica COREMA MYRMA ARMA UK (Association of Research Managers and Administrators) EARMA Canadian Association of Research Administrators ARMA - NL #RMA #BookAnnouncement #OpenAccess #ResearchAdministration #ResearchManagement #Book #Research #ResearchSupport #Profession

Magnifique analyse ! MDPI est un éditeur prédateur, c'est-à-dire avec des pratiques scientifiques douteuses et questionnables. Les papiers publiés y sont très largement de mauvaise qualité, avec un processus de révision par les pairs largement facilité, pour favoriser le modèle économique de ce groupe. Personnellement, un papier publié dans MDPI me questionne sur les pratiques scientifiques des auteurs en général, et concernant TOUS leurs papiers, MDPI ou non-MDPI. C'est un véritable RED FLAG que j'invite tout le monde à avoir en tête. Cette nouvelle étude révèle que (a) les personnes en faveur de la publication dans les journaux de MPDI sont majoritairement ceux qui publient dans MDPI seulement ; et (b) les personnes qui citent des papiers dans MDPI sont également majoritairement ces mêmes auteurs, les autres semblant conserver une préférence pour les éditeurs avec une éthique scientifique plus marquée. Ce genre d'étude aide les pratiques scientifiques à évoluer dans le bon sens.

During the IPSERA conference, the EXPERTISE team (Vincent Delke, Jakub Sieber, Michal Tkac, Florian Paffrath, Matthias Braun, Jukka Hallikas) had the opportunity to show the research results of the project's second work package. During the session on PSM skills, Vincent Delke presented the results of the literature review and the next steps of the Erasmus+ project. The conference is the annual meeting of the International Purchasing and Supply Education and Research Association (IPSERA), a multidisciplinary network of academics and practitioners dedicated to developing knowledge about Purchasing and Supply Management (PSM). In 2024, the conference focused on “the role of PSM on producing alternatives to a world that calls for change”. The conference took place from March 24 to March 27, 2024 in Rio de Janeiro. During the presentation, the relevance and need for research on this topic was highlighted and the European collaborative work was outlined to the participants. In the next step, the preliminary study of the previous work was shown to examine and identify prevalent keywords, their relationships and the thematic clusters they form within the academic discourse on the education and training of silver workers. The results of the following systematic literature review of 1422 academic publications show that there is a need to develop targeted, age-appropriate education and training programs for silver workers, emphasizing the need for flexible, technology-driven and personalized approaches. It also calls for a shift in corporate culture and attitudes towards older workers to recognize their valuable contribution and address the unique challenges they face in a rapidly evolving business landscape. This report sets the stage for current research in EXPERTISE as well as future research and practical measures to improve the skills and employability of older workers in the PSM and related sectors. #IPSERA #PSM #SilverWorker #Training #Education Funded by the European Union.

Nous y voilà. 3 guides de mise en oeuvre majeurs sont finalisés par l'EFRAG ce soir du 31 mai. Et non des moindres: - déjà la guidance sur les Data Point. En gros le R, le S et le E dans RSE. bref, toutes les mesures quantitatives ou narratives. - ensuite la guidance sur la Value Chain donc tout ce qui précise tout ce qui se passe "avant", les fournisseurs, les matières premières, ce qui se passe pendant (les opérations), et ce qui se passe après (la distribution, l'usage et la fin de vie), et par ailleurs l' 'engagement', c'est à dire la traçabilité, la transparence, la collaboration des parties prenantes - enfin le gros morceau: le 'materiality assessment', c'est à dire la mise en musique de tout cela à travers l'identification des parties prenantes, des problèmes, des critères, des priorités, l'intégration dans le reporting, la mise en place de processus de revue et de mise à jour. Bref, c'est une étape de franchie, et à dire vrai, tout le monde est très très loin d'être prêt. Mardi 4 juin, chez IBM avec des acteurs du #procurement et de la #RSE nous nous réunirons pour adresser un thème essentiel mis en exergue par les travaux de l'EFRAG sur la CSRD que sont les Achats Responsables. https://lnkd.in/egrGW592 IBM Olivia Carsalade Marion Chevalier Sheila O'HARA Antoine Michaux Yassine ESSALIH Benjamin Hulot Alexandra HUILLET Fabrice Leroy Laïla Abou El Bal

€6 billion needed to fund more high-quality proposals received under the #MarieSkłodowskaCurieActions, study shows 📚 The European Commission has released a new study highlighting the contribution of the #MSCA to research and innovation. It shows that the opportunities provided under the MSCA remain unparalleled at national level, demonstrating undisputed European added value. The study is part of the mid-term evaluation of #HorizonEU and compares the MSCA to other parts of the Pillar 1 programme. Here are just a few takeaways: 🔵 The MSCA leads to tangible improvements in #research organisations, including better training, more inclusive environments, and high-quality supervision. 🔵 European research projects funded by the MSCA are often larger, more complex, and more diverse, leading to more research outputs and innovations. 🔵 The programme provides access to essential knowledge, expertise, and skills that might not be available otherwise, helping to drive #innovation and #competitiveness in European research. These are just a few reasons why the programme is such a crucial element of the European research ecosystem. Investing in the programme is crucial for fostering excellent science - let's push for a brighter future for the MSCA! Read more: europa.eu/!g7PTPy
