Call 8 on Trustworthy ICT
The European Commission will launch a call for proposals for RTD projects in the area of Trustworthy ICT (Objective 1.4), as part of the challenge 1 of the ICT Work Programme 2011-2012. The objective is a trustworthy Information Society based on an ecosystem of digital communication, data processing and service provisioning infrastructures, with trustworthiness in its design, as well as respect for human and societal values and cultures.
