COST invites proposals for Actions contributing to the scientific, technological, economic, cultural or societal development of Europe. Proposals playing a precursor role for other European programmes and/or initiated by early-stage researchers are especially welcome. The next collection date for preliminary proposals (maximum 1500 words/3 pages) is 28 March 2008.
COST finances networking of nationally funded activities in supporting meetings, conferences, short term scientific exchanges and outreach activities. COST therefore does NOT fund research itself. Financial support in the range of EUR 100 000 per annum for normally 4 years can be expected.
Applicants for COST funding must be engaged in a research programme in an institution of a COST member state.
