The European Commission, DG XII, has published call for proposals for RTD actions to be carried out under the Community's specific RTD programme in the field of environment and climate (1994-1998). The objectives and the research, technological development and demonstration activities covered by this call for proposals relate to Theme 3 (Space techniques applied to environmental monitoring and research) of the Environment and Climate work programme and, specifically, to actions concerning the Centre for Earth Observation (CEO). The research and technological development work to be carried out will, as a general rule, be carried out as shared-cost projects. In addition, certain measures will be carried out as preparatory, accompanying and support measures or concerted actions. The concept of the CEO has been developed and refined since the Environment and Climate work programme was initially published. All potential applicants should, therefore request the supporting documentation on the CEO available from the Commission services. The work programme, the information package concerning the procedures to be followed for the submission of proposals, and a copy of the model contract to be drawn up for the proposals accepted are available from the Commission on request. Before submitting a proposal, applicants are strongly encouraged to contact either relevant Commission personnel or national contacts (the list of such contacts is included in the information pack). In so doing, they can be assured that their proposals will be in line with programme objectives and eligibility criteria before they are formally submitted. Requests for supporting documentation and proposals for RTD projects should be sent to: European Commission DG XII - Science, research and development Unit XII/D-4 - Environment and Climate 75 rue Montoyer B-1040 Brussels Fax +32-2-2960588
