Information on the Evaluation of R&D Units 2022/2023

By decision of the Directive Council of 20 July 2022, FCT informs that the evaluation process scheduled to take place in 2022/2023 will be postponed by one year, and the Call for submission of evaluation applications is expected to be launched in October 2023. This postponement is based on the low execution rate of the 2020-2023 period up to the present moment, to which the global pandemic situation of the last two years has contributed. This atypical situation may also have had an impact on the scientific production indicators, and it is desirable that the Units are not prejudiced in the evaluation of the period under analysis.

FCT will make available, during the month of September 2022, more details about this process, which will ensure the normal functioning of the institutions during the year 2024. The FCT team remains available to provide any necessary clarifications.
