Funding and bureaucracy Sample Clauses

Funding and bureaucracy. When working with citizens and practitioners, sometimes is advisable to pay them. However, some things should be improved to ease this process: 1) administrative paperwork should be done by the institution and not by the citizen; 2) It is better to pay per diem and always in advance; 3) many people cannot and do not know how to invoice and this shouldn’t be a problem. • Every citizen pays taxes just for being a citizen. It seems coherent that also citizens can apply for funding without the need to be part of a bigger organisation or having some legal structure. • Hiring a person to help develop projects can be very difficult according to local laws and internal rules of institutions. • Stability is hard for innovation. • It is a common mistake to underestimate the inertia of institutions and organisations, and therefore their resistance to change. • There is a high degree of labour uncertainty and instability within the professionals that manage citizen science projects and environmental education. • When joining to EU projects, you usually are part of an European consortium but to make projects work you need to join to local networks. Sometimes these networks are not part of the project what complicates things. It is necessary to be aware that in these cases you need to meet expectations from both types of partners. • It will be a good practice for European projects in public engagement to have international facilitators meeting besides consortium meetings to share good practices and lessons learnt by experience in the field.
