You can search the programmes by policy area.
Are you a film producer? Go to Media. Are you a climate change researcher? Go to Research, Environment and Climate Change. Are you a social worker? Go to Social affairs, Employment or Citizenship. And so on... |
If you know the name of the programme - go to Index, which lists all programmes in alphabetic order.
We have more than 50 programmes described in more details. All of the programmes are included in the policy are section. |
Follow the discussions and decisions made on the future of the 2007-2013 programmes. What is Horizon 2020 or Erasmus for All and what will be the main changes compared to FP7, CIP and LLP?
|
Our experts have been involved in research and innovation related projects since 1999. In this section we summarize what you need to know on FP7, the rules of applying for a grant and how to manage a running project.

Does that sound really
complicated? If you want to understand the system and the concept behind, look through this explanatory part. |
Direct grants support the common
EU objectives. These include European Union programmes that beneficiaries - normally in partnership - can directly apply for to the EC. Typically you compete on a European (even world-wide) level and sign a contract with the European Commission. |
Indirect grants support normally national / regional objectives. You compete on national/regional
level and individually or in partnership implement your project. Your funding authority will be a ministry or a regional agency. |
Get to know other funds which give grants e.g. EUROSTARS, ERA-NET, EUREKA, Visegrad Fund, or find support outside the EU budget e.g. World Bank, Norwegian Fund, etc. or even find supplementary
sources that are not necessarily grants e.g. EBRD, EIF, EIB. |

The European Metrology Research Programme (EMRP) is a metrology-focused European programme of coordinated R&D that facilitates closer integration of national research programmes. The EMRP is jointly supported by the European Commission and the participating countries within the European Association of National Metrology Institutes (EURAMET e.V.). The EMRP will ensure collaboration between National Measurement Institutes, reducing duplication and increasing impact.
Objectives
The overall goal of the EMRP is to accelerate innovation and competitiveness in Europe whilst continuing to provide essential support to underpin the quality of our lives.
Implementation
Projects should increase and diversify capacities in metrology and to complement the Joint Research Projects (JRPs). Additionally, researcher grant schemes are available to bring external expertise into the research projects, and there are opportunities for organisations to participate in the research projects with their own resources where it is mutually beneficial to do so. The EMRP is implemented by EURAMET, organised by 22 National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) http://www.euramet.org
The budget is jointly funded by the European Commission and the participating countries this second phase is now approved, with a total budget of 400 M€ over an approximately seven year period.
