In case of Priority Area 5 – Environmental Risks the deadline of arrival of the data sheet (exported in .pdf format from the eMS system) is 13^th of November in 2017. Please send your mails to “” address with copy to the priority area coordinators.

PA 5 defined topics:

For the Priority Area it is vital to know what the content of your proposal is and what is going to be delivered by the future transnational project. In order to get aware of the information PA coordination would like to receive an export format of the (partly) completed form from the eMS system. It is understood that not all the details shall be ready until the 13th of November (missing e.g. budgetary issues, proper partner details or worksflow etc.), but the main aims and targets of the project should be clear. The thematic focus should not be modified afterwards.

Prioirty Area 5 will need at least 15 days to evaluate that the content of the proposal is whether in line with the given thematic topics or not and to make a decision and send the signed Declaration of Alignment to the project Lead Partner.

We suggest to get in contact with the coordination prior to the deadline or send a concept note in advance. It is our intention to assist all the candidates for the programme but it requires mutual collaboration from the potential project partners as well. Thank you for your interest and wish you a successfull application!
