4 Priority 7 General Context European Research Area (ERA) –Long-term strategic policy objective for EU and Member States 6th Framework Programme (FP6) –Main EU instrument to support ERA “Integrating” Programme –Focus on Thematic Priorities Priority 7 “Citizens and governance in a knowledge-based society” –Focal point for social sciences and humanities

5 Priority 7 Objectives of the programme Support and develop Social Sciences and Humanities to produce high quality research in areas of policy relevance... … while structuring Social Sciences and Humanities in such a way to fully exploit the opportunities of the emerging European Research Area

6 Political Context Lisbon Summit 2000 fixed ambitious objectives for EU Knowledge base for managing the transition process … … and identification of new challenges Comparative dimension Multidisciplinarity; integrative approach

7 Priority7 Knowledge-based Society (1)Generation, Distribution, Use of Knowledge (2)Options & Choices for the development of a knowledge-based Society (KBS) Quality of Life; Social Cohesion;Labour Market Policies; Life-long Education; Sustainable Development … (3)Variety of Paths towards KBS Transition Processes at EU, national, regional Level

9 Implementation Our toolbox Networks of Excellence (NoE) Integrated Projects (IP) Specific targeted research Projects (STRP) Coordination Actions (CA)...

10 Implementation Networks of Excellence Structuring the European Research Area Integrating research capacities from national programmes/activities Long-term perspective “Top-down” area definition Duration: 5 years Financial support:3 - 7 Million Euro

11 Implementation Integrated Project Ambitious, targeted research endeavour Clearly defined objectives Aiming at results of “direct relevance” “Top-down” definition of key issues Duration: 5 years Financial support:3 - 7 Million Euro

12 Implementation Specific Targeted Research Project Basic features similar to “traditional” RTD Projects in FP4 and FP5 Emphasis on developing excellence Preparing the ground for future NoE/IP “Bottom-up” definition of specific topics Duration: 3 years Financial support:around 1 Million Euro

13 Implementation Coordination Actions Basic features similar to “traditional” Thematic Networks in FP4 and FP5 Emphasis on cordination of activities (meetings, information system etc.) “Bottom-up” definition of specific topics Duration: 3 years Financial support:around 0.7 Million Euro

31 Evaluation & Selection Criteria for STREPs and CAs Relevance to the objectives of the (3) programme STRP: S&T Excellence/ CA: Quality of coordination(4) Potential Impact(3) Quality of the consortium (3) Quality of the management(3) Mobilisation of resources (3) Overall threshold: 3.5

32 Evaluation & Selection Selection Number of “positively” evaluated proposals (normally) exceeds available budget Commission selects among the “positively” evaluated proposals according to –balanced distribution between disciplines etc. –coverage of research tasks –structuring and integrating effects for the ERA Selection needs approval of Member States

33 Evaluation & Selection Evaluators needed... Evaluation is crucial ! Involvement of high quality evaluators from all over Europe required Stressful, but highly interesting task Open call for applications from individuals and for suggestions from institutions: www.cordis.lu/experts/fp6_candidature.htm

34 Hints & Tips ”Check-list” for applicants Right task, right instrument, right deadline? Essential contribution to objectives, themes and tasks ? What about the European Research Area? Clear ideas on who will do what ? Sound description of methodologies ? Impact, dissemination, users ? Fun to read your proposal ?
