• Yes. As long as the minimum eligibility requirements are respected (i.e. the one coordinator from a Widening country and two advanced institutions from two different MS or AC), then additional partners are allowed according to the needs and objectives of each proposal. However, applicants need to bear in mind that as described in the Work Programme text, “…Twinning aims at significantly strengthening a defined field of research in a particular knowledge institution ….by creating a link between this institution and at least two internationally-leading research institutions….”.
  • There are no conditions or ideal ratio with respect to the balance of partners from Widening vis a vis non-Widening Countries.
