Practical guide to EU funding

A "Practical Guide to EU funding for research, development and innovation" has been developed by the services of the European Commission.

In addition to practical information on combining the different funding sources, the guide includes a description of each fund, advice for policy makers and an innovative Checklist and Scorecard. These allow potential beneficiaries to quickly identify exactly how they can access European funding at every stage of the development and implementation of a project.

The draft guide, accompanying documents and more information can be found on cordis.

The document is still a draft and potential beneficiaries, policy makers and all interested in EC funding are invited to send comments and suggestions by end of April 2009 to the authors.
