ASSETS OF THE NETWORK

• Mobility program:– About 160 exchanges (both 

researchers and students) in the region (2005-20112) 

in average 20 per year– Duration of visits: one week (for 

students up tp one month)• Network meetings: 15 meetings in 

7 years, about 750 participants• Publications: Monographs, Network

Conference Proceedings: about 10 issues

• Research: Numerous joint papers with acknowledgements to UNESCO and ICTP for support, partially or even fully based on collaboration during exchanges

• Scientific education and promotion of science/physics – lectures and books– Meetings and Competitions of 

High School students and undergraduate students: ``Science and Society`` in 2008, 2009 and 2011

–  Special class for high school students with special interests in sciences, Nis, Serbia, www.pmf.ni.ac.rs/f_odeljenje 

• Map of Excellence in Physics and Mathematics in SEE: Profiles of 40 research/higher education institutions in SEE, from 7 countries

PROMOTION OF SCIENCE SEENET-MTP web portal became one of the most popular source of information concerning

MTP in our region

WHAT SEENET COULD CONNECT ?

• The science, education and culture from Southeastern EU countries through UNESCO

• The Physicists from Southeastern European Countries with Europethrough ICTP and EPS

• The Physicists from Balkansthrough Balkan Physics Union

LET’S HOPE AND WORK ON THAT !
