Description
Coordinated ERA-NET Call 2009
Additional information
The objective of the ERA-NET scheme is to develop and strengthen the coordination of public research programmes conducted at national or regional level. Only "Programme owners" (typically national ministries/regional authorities) and "Programme managers” (such as research councils or funding agencies) are considered as eligible partners in an ERA-NET action. It should be stressed that research organisations or universities which are NOT programme owners or managers are NOT eligible partners for ERA-NET actions.
The call FP7-ERANET-2009-RTD, supporting ERA-NET activities was published on 19 November 2008 and closes on 21 April 2009 2008. This is a Joint Call covering five themes of the cooperation workprogramme: 1) Environment (including Climate Change); 2) Health; 3) Food, Agriculture and Fisheries, and Biotechnology; 4) Nanosciences, Nanotechnologies, Materials and new Production Technologies; 5) Socio-economic sciences and Humanities.
Important Notice: Please note that there will be no call for horizontal ERA-NETs in the 2009 work programme.
Additional information on this call should be sought in the relevant thematic work programmes available in the Information package.
A Pre-Proposal Check (PPC) service is available (see form in Additional documents) to those wishing to submit an ERA-NET action under the FP7 joint call. This service allows a proposer to check on the appropriateness of their proposed action and the eligibility of the proposal consortium.
