Call for Proposals - SSH 2012 - Collaborative Projects (Small or medium-scale) & Coordination and Support Actions FP7-SSH-2012-2 Closed!
Objectives
The main objective of this call is to generate an in-depth, shared understanding of the complex, interrelated socio-economic challenges that Europe faces. These include the need to foster growth, employment and competitiveness, as well as social cohesion. Social, cultural and educational challenges in an enlarged EU are significant, as are sustainability, environmental protection, demographic change, migration and integration, quality of life, removing barriers to exercising citizenship and global interdependence. The aim is to improve the knowledge base for drawing up policies that have a clear relevance in these fields at European level.
