Abstract

The European Research Council (ERC) responded to a call by DORA for examples of work currently being carried out by funding organisations on changes to application processes to reduce the likelihood of bias in outcomes. This case study focuses on the ERC’s work in this area, to assess and revise their evaluation procedures and the corresponding information that the organisation requests from applicants, as part of their ongoing process to ensure a fair and transparent evaluation process. The case study was finalised in October 2024 and published here in January 2025.
