1. Main inter-related stages of the project Research Programming (strategic and operational) Projects

2. Chances 2.1. Chance for territory-based integration of approaches and themetic areas at research and programme level  Ecology  Economy  Society 2.2. Chance for integrated projects  Multi-sectoral  Partnership-based  Area-based or network type projects

3. Challenges 3.1.Challenge of management of  Integrated research  Integrated programming 3.2.Challenge of implementation of  Integrated („cross-sectoral”) programmes and projects

4. Use results and failures of Hungarian integrated programming initiatives (e.g.) Pannon Egyetem, Veszprém BME, Budapest ELTE, Budapest Balaton region integrated programme Development Poles concept Less Developed micro-regions (33) Veszprém-Szentkirályszabadja Airport

7. Possible main project stages Project definition (scoping, objectives, methodological approach, outline management structures and project design, 2012) Launch and implementation of the research phase (2013) Review of and feed-back to the research phase, design of the programming phase, outline programming („concept programme”, ) Programming for next Structural Funds period, feed-back to research and programming phase ( )

8. Types of outputs (summary) Projects for current OP’s (Action Plans ) Long Term integrated and thematic strategies Input to post-2013 „mainstream OP’s” Input to international cooperation inititives Management model for efficient implementation of integrated strategies and projects
