ERA.Net RUS Workshop “Development of a concept of joint activities of S&T and innovation activities of EU MS/AC and Russia”

Building on a previous exchange with a variety of Funding Organisations in EU Member States and Associated Countries to the 7th Frameworkprogramme, the workshop aims to present, discuss and validate together with the participating programme owners the draft “Terms of References for joint activities of S&T and innovation programme owners in EU MS/AC and Russia” that were prepared by the ERA.Net RUS consortium and that present options for joint multilateral joint activities. The objective of the workshop is to find common ground among programme owners interested in the participation in a particular joint funding instrument. Proposed instruments include: support for mobility, R&D projects, innovation projects and accompanying measures (e.g. workshops). Organisations interested to take part in one or more of the proposed funding instruments are invited to define the details of these funding instruments (budget, cost categories, topics, etc.) during the workshop in Oslo together with other interested programme owners from EU Member States, Associated Countries to FP7 and Russia.
