COST - European Cooperation in Science and Technology
COST campaigns support scientific networks in which scientists from at least seven countries funded by COST participate. The basis is a joint work programme for a period of four years. The scientific topics are initiated "bottom-up" by the researchers. Funding for the network is up to 150,000 euros per year.
Funded are:
- Network activities / meetings / conferences
- Workshops and seminars
- Short scientific exchanges and training schools
- Traveling expenses
- Management activities
- Publications, websites and the dissemination of the results
