Doorstart COST: European Co-operation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research

Founded in 1971, COST is an intergovernmental framework for European Co-operation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research, allowing the co-ordination of nationally funded research (NWO) on a European level. COST Actions cover basic and pre-competitive research as well as activities of public utility and have the character of coordination/network actions.

COST has clearly shown its strength in non-competitive research, in pre-normative co-operation and in solving environmental and cross-border problems and problems of public utility. It has been successfully used to maximize European synergy and added value in research co-operation and it is a useful tool to further European integration, in particular concerning Central and Eastern European countries.

Deadline: continuous
