Summary
DELTA-Hub aims to establish a competitive ERA Chairs research centre at the University of Bucharest (UniBuc) under the supervision of an outstanding research manager in the field of river delta science. This transformation will be achieved through i) integrating premier research with innovative educational programs (MSc and PhD); ii) attracting top scientists to bolster the academic and research rankings; iii) promoting structural changes within the UniBuc aimed to increase researcher mobility and collaborations. It aims to cultivate excellence and diversity, boost visibility, and increase competitiveness for EU funding, significantly enhancing UniBuc's research excellence and administrative capacity. This initiative capitalizes on existing knowledge, resources, expertise and recently created infrastructure at UniBuc transforming DELTA-Hub into an excellence hub for inter-disciplinary research of deltaic environments in the Mediterranean-Black Sea area. Over 60 months, the project will involve 18 people (ERA Chair holder, 4 senior and 8 junior scientists, 4 administrative personnel and 1 technician; out of which 9 new positions to be recruited). This effort aligns with the ERA Chairs program and with key European and global priorities such as Black Sea SRIA, HE Mission 3, UN SDGs, EU Green Deal and EU environmental infrastructures DANUBIUS-RI, LIFEWATCH and REXDAN. Eight WPs focus on management, enhancing research and educational excellence, capacity building, collaboration, and ensuring sustainable impact on environmental management and policy. Engaging with stakeholders, policymakers, and the broader public, promoting sustainable sediment management practices and developing strategies to mitigate environmental challenges facing deltaic regions, DELTA-Hub will create conditions for enhanced adaptability, sustainability, and continuity of ecosystem services in these vulnerable areas through informed decision-making and management.
