Integrating Europe's neighbours into the ERA (ERA-WIDE):
Objective:
To reinforce the cooperation capacities of research centres located in the ENP countries, which are not associated to FP7, in the areas of the thematic priorities of FP7.
CAPACITIES - International CooperationCAPACITIES - International CooperationERA-WIDE – ObjectivesERA-WIDE – Objectives
33
CAPACITIES - International CooperationCAPACITIES - International CooperationERA-WIDE – Country CoverageERA-WIDE – Country Coverage

Mediterranean Partner Countries:
Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Jordan, Occupied Palestinian Territory, Lebanon, Syria
Eastern Europe and South Caucasus:
Moldova, Georgia, Ukraine, Belarus, Armenia, Azerbaijan
34
• The call is addressed to research centres of proven high level S&T capacities, which are located in an ENP country not associated to FP7;
• The proposal should target only one such centre;• The consortium should however include additional
participants, in particular from the MS and/or AC so as to fulfil the objectives of the activity;
• The research centre targeted by the proposal should be the coordinator of the proposal.

• Research centre: existing working unit, either working independent or functioning within locally established research organisation
• The centre should not be a subsidiary or branch of an organisation established in another country
36
ERA-WIDE actions:• Networking with research centres in MS or AC in view of
disseminating scientific information, identifying partners and setting up joint experiments;
• Developing training modules to build competency and facilitate the participation of these centres in FP7;
• Developing research centres’ strategy in order to increase their scope (regional coverage, activities) and to improve their responses to the socio-economic needs of their countries and of the region.

ERA-WIDE impact:• Contribution to RTD capacity building in the target country,• Enhanced participation of the country in FP7,• Increased scope (regional coverage, subjects, activities) of
the centres with increased linkage with economic and social environment,
• Networking with research centres in MS and AC (mobilising human and material resources, disseminating scientific information, facilitating communication…),
• Increased job opportunities in the country for young scientists.
