European Research Area (ERA)
This is a general concept proposed by the
Commission and endorsed by the
European Parliament and Council to
overcome the present fragmentation
of Europe efforts in the area of
research and innovation.
The concept comprises:
 organising co-operation at different levels,
 co-ordinating national or European policies,
 networking teams and
 increasing the mobility of individuals and
ideas.

Framework Programme
Since 1984, research and innovation activities
of the EU are grouped in one big programme, the
Framework Programme.
Framework Programmes are conceived for a period
of 4 years.
The Sixth Framework Programme is the
European Community Framework Programme for
Research, Technological Development and
Demonstration 2002-2006.
FP6 is the main instrument of the European
Communities for the realisation of the European
Research Area (ERA).

Co-operative Research (CRAFT)
Co-operative research projects are projects whereby
a number of Small or Medium-Sized
Enterprises (SME) assign scientific and technological
research activities to RTD performers (e.g. to
research centres or universities).
These activities may also be carried out by
innovative and high-tech SMEs in co-operation with
research centres and universities.
The SMEs retain ownership of the results.

Continuing Instruments
Collective Research
They are carried out by RTD performers (research
institutes, universities etc.) on behalf of business
associations or industry groupings in order to
expand the knowledge base of large communities
of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs).
Ownership and exploitation of the results lie with
the industrial associations.

Specific Targeted Research Projects
(STREP) - Shared-cost research projects or Demonstration projects from
FP5
STREPs are multi partner research or demonstration projects with
the purpose of supporting research, technological development
and demonstration activities.
They are projects of a more limited scope and ambition than
Integrated Projects (IPs).
The Community contribution is paid as a grant to the budget (percentage of
total costs of the project).
STREPs are used in implementing the priority thematic areas, in
other areas supporting Community policies and anticipating scientific
and technological needs, in specific international co-operation
research activities, and in research activities developing harmonious
relations between science and society

New Instruments
Coordination Action (CA) –
Concerted actions and
Thematic Networks in FP5
They are intended to promote and support the
networking and coordination of research and
innovation activities.
They will cover:
 the definition, organisation and management of joint
or common initiatives
 organisation of conferences and meetings,
 the performance of studies,
 exchange of personnel,
 the exchange and dissemination of good practices,
 setting up common information systems and expert
groups.

Specific Support Actions (SSA) - Accompanying
Measures from V FP
SSA are an instrument of FP6 aiming to contribute
actively to the implementation of activities of the work
programme, the analysis and dissemination of results or
the preparation of future activities.
SSA can include:
conferences, seminars , studies and analysis ,
working and expert groups , operational
support and dissemination of information and
communication, or combinations thereof.
The activities of a specific support action will be supported through
a grant to the budget of up to 100% of the budget.

New Instruments
Integrated Projects (IP)
Integrated Projects (IP) are one of the new
instruments of FP6.
An IP is a trans-national multi-partner project
with the main aim to generate knowledge in the
priority thematic areas of FP6.
Integrated projects have to include research
and technological development activities and
can in addition have demonstration, training
and innovation-related activities.

Networks of excellence (NoE)
Network of Excellences are an instrument to
overcome the fragmentation of the European
research landscape with the objective to
strengthen European excellence in a given
area.
Their purpose is to reach a durable
restructuring/shaping and integration of efforts
and institutions or part of institutions
(laboratories, departments, units, teams …) in
areas where this is necessary.
