European Union Vision Horizon 2020
The European Union's Framework Programme encourages participation in European Research and Technological Development. This is the final and largest ever package of FP7 calls, which will be replaced by Horizon 2020 in 2014.
The European Commission includes an international dimension to their Horizon 2020 work programmes which includes opportunities for Australian participation. Australia-based researchers should be liaising with the lead European organisation in the first instance, as most programs will require a European organisation to lead the project.
