H2020 Research Infrastructure – Integrating Activities for Advanced Communities
While the work programme is still not finalised, The belowis a list of Advanced Community topics that may feature in the H2020 RI Integrating Activities 2019 deadline call. Seven Advanced Community areas are identified: Biological and Biomedical Sciences (BBS); Energy (E); Environmental and Earth Sciences (ENV); Mathematics, Information Communication and Technology (ICT); Materials and Analytical Facilities (MAF); Physical Sciences (PS); Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH);.
It is expected that Category A applicants to the SFI RI call will seek a Letter of Support from these consortia, who as previously stated are most likely to be in a position to lead the winning bid under this call topic. Advanced Community topics listed in Table 1 are likely to be topics proposed for funding in the H2020 INFRA-IA 2018/2019 call.
