The Lithuanian Presidency of the
EU is currently preparing a conference to discuss the new role of Socio-economic
Sciences and Humanities SSH in the new EU research funding programme,
Horizon2020, which will be launched at the end of this year. The conference
will take place in Vilnius
The conference's steering
committee has decided to launch an online consultation on how to shape the roles
of SSH in “Horizon 2020”. The objective is to learn more about the current
situation and the ambitions of the research community, but also to identify the
needs and structural problems of specific fields, with an emphasis on their
potential to contribute to the success of the Vision Europe 2020.
The consultation is circulated to the wider SSH research community, irrespective
of whether individuals or institutions are already active in EU-funded research, but also to those SSH
communities that have not yet been involved in EU-funding. This may include researchers who are
based outside Europe but are in cooperation with colleagues in Europe .
Results of the consultation will
be made publicly accessible. They will also provide valuable input for the
planned Vilnius
The five questions to be answered until June
15th 2013 can be found here:
