Horizon 2020: European programme for research and innovation
Webmaster
The 30th of November 2011, the European Commission has revealed its European programme for research and innovation. Running from 2014 to 2020 with an €80 billion budget, this programme replaces the seventh framework programme (FP7). Its aim: reach the objective to allocate 3% of the European GDP into research and innovation in 2020.Three pillars in one programme
- Excellent science (€24.6 billion)
- Competitive industries (€17.94 billion)
- Better society (€31.75 billion)
- Health, demographic change and wellbeing;
- Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research, and the bio-economy;
- Secure, clean and efficient energy;
- Smart, green and integrated transport;
- Inclusive, innovative and secure societies;
- Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials.
Lighten the administrative process
The funding provided by Horizon 2020 will be easier to access. The commission seeks to simplify the administrative process: simpler programme architecture, single set of rules and less red-tape. The paperwork for preparing proposals will be reduced, and measures will be taken to accelerate the receipt of funding following a grant application. In doing so, the Commission wishes also to open up the programme to more participants from across Europe, and aims to identify potential centres of excellence in underperforming regions to offer them policy and support.Negotiations between the Council and the European Parliament will begin shortly, with a view to adoption before the end of 2013. Thus, calls for proposals could start on January 2014.
