RI action under H2020


1.1 Developing new world-class RIs Objective: To ensure the implementation, long-term sustainability and operation of the ESFRI and other world-class RIs specifically those RIs that are setting up or that have set up their governance e.g. ERIC EU funding will support: §  the preparatory phase of future RIs (e.g. detailed construction

plans, legal arrangements, multiannual planning, etc.) §  the implementation phase (e.g. R&D and engineering work,

development of regional partner facilities, etc.) §  the operation phase (e.g. access, data handling, outreach,

training and international cooperation activities) §  design studies for new RIs through a bottom-up approach


1.2 Integrating and opening existing national RIs of pan-European interest

Objective: To open up key national RIs to all European researchers and to ensure their optimal use and joint development

EU funding will support European Research Infrastructures Networks bringing together RIs in a given field covering: §  Transnational and virtual access activities §  Networking activities to foster a culture of cooperation §  Joint research activities to improve the services provided

by the infrastructures


1.3 Development, deployment and operation of ICT based e-Infrastructures

Objective: To achieve by 2020 a single and open European space for online research
