Work Package 2

Preparation and launch of the cofunded call

Objectives

The objectives of this WP are to establish a sound basis for the launch of the co-funded call and toadminister the submission steps, by:

• Preparing a call announcement and supporting documents in line with the scope of the ERA-GAS Cofund, the objectives of the Strategic Research Agenda of the FACCE-JPI and in close consultation with FACCE-JPI Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) and Stakeholder Advisory Board(StAB).
• Launching the call using an online submission tool
• Supporting applicants via a dedicated help-line.
• Efficiently administering Step 1 and 2 of the call.

Experiences collected from previous projects (such as FACCE-ERA-NET+, FACCE SURPLUS) and joint activities, but also from other European initiatives (such as PLATFORM), will feed into this WP in order to ensure the most efficient implementation of the tasks.
