The Euraxess network is a Pan-European initiative that offers an extensive range of information services and which provides support to researchers who wish to conduct their research career in Europe or who want to maintain their links to research activities in Europe. 

The Network has more than 300 research support centres and 40 member countries. Its function is to help achieve the strategic objectives of the European Research Area (ERA), such as removing obstacles to mobility and attracting and retaining research talent in Europe.  
Euraxess is the source of information, documentation and support for institutions that wish to apply the principles of the European Research Charter and Code (C&C) (video) via the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R). 

Euraxess  has the following mechanisms to implement these objectives:

• Euraxess Services: advisory services related to researcher mobility (administrative procedures and legal requirements)
• Euraxess Jobs: publication of job offers in R+D +i by the stakeholder organizations, as well as publication of researchers’ CVs.
• Euraxess Rights: European Commission recommendations to attract research talent (Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers, European Charter for Reseachers and the Scientific Visa).
• Euraxess Links: a globally connected European research community, access to forums, databases, information bulletins, email alerts, etc.  

The Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT) is the Network’s co-ordinating body in Spain.

The Euraxess Spain network has been growing since its creation in 2004 and currently has more than 85 centres among the Autonomous communities and in different agencies of the Spanish System of Science, Technology and Innovation.
