Public policy has a critical role in shaping more inclusive, collaborative, and internationalised research ecosystems, and FCT has been translating these objectives into new and innovative approaches, in view of establishing an effective continuum between national and European frameworks. The relevance of career planning, investment in networking, or horizontal skills development and other capacity building initiatives, gains new momentum with the ongoing transformation of how research is assessed and the transition to a new paradigm of evaluation models. This presentation explores the present and future national, European and international funding schemes with particular emphasis on structured career planning and progression, mobility, and cross-sectoral collaboration. It also highlights models that support talent circulation, engagement with non-academic sectors, and institutional capacity-building to attract and retain researchers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
