The calls invite proposals for indirect RTD actions relating to the thematic priority area: 'Support for the coherent development of policies'.
This action is targeted at national and regional authorities and may involve, where appropriate, other relevant stakeholders active in research policy making.
Proposals can be submitted in the following areas:
- public research spending and policy mixes;
- public research base and its links to industry;
