FP7 Structure & Thematic Areas
FP7 is EU's main instrument for funding research and it will run
from 2007 to 2013

FP7 Budget
Five major building blocks:
–
–
–
–
–
Cooperation (~32 .4 b€)
Ideas (~7. 5 b€)
People (~4.75 b€)
Capacities (~4.1 b€)
Non nuclear actions of the
JRC (~1.75 b€)
(€ 50 521 million)
Note: Nuclear Research (Euratom): € 2.7 billion over 5 years - not included above

Specific Programme “Cooperation”
The core of FP7, representing 2/3 of the overall budget, is the
Cooperation programme. It fosters collaborative research
across Europe and other partner countries through projects by
transnational consortia of industry and academia. Research will
be carried out in ten key thematic areas:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Health
Food, agriculture, fisheries and biotechnology
Information and communication technologies
Nanosciences, nanotechnologies, materials and new production
technologies
5. Energy
6. Environment (including climate change)
7. Transport (including aeronautics)
8. Socio-economic sciences and the humanities
9. Space
10. Security

“Cooperation” Budget
Total = ~ 32 b€ (2007-2013)

FP7 Environmental Research
“Objectives”
“To promote sustainable management of the natural and human environment
and its resources by:
 advancing our knowledge on the interaction between the biosphere,
ecosystems and human activities, and
 developing new technologies, tools and services, in order to address in an
integrated way global environmental issues.
Emphasis will be put on:
 prediction of climate ecological, earth and ocean systems changes on
 tools and technologies, for monitoring, prevention and mitigation of
environmental pressures and risks including on health and for the
sustainability of the natural and man-made environment.”

Agenda.
Overarching Theme – ‘Environmental safety and welfare’
‘Through research, to contribute to assessing, reducing and preventing
tensions and conflicts related to the depletion of natural resources and
environmental services which are arising due to rapid environmental
changes and/or natural and man-made hazards’

Marine Research in FP7
Why Cross-Cutting
Cross thematic Approaches
•
FP7 Cooperation Programme legislative text (Dec 2006)
Special attention will be paid to ensuring there is effective coordination
between the thematic areas and to priority scientific areas which cut
across themes, such as marine sciences and technologies.” Joint
cross-thematic approaches will be encouraged to research and
technology subjects relevant to more than one theme, with joint calls being
an important inter-thematic form of cooperation.”

Marine Research in FP7
Cross-Cutting Options
• Coordinated call (2009)
Call FP7-ENV-2009: “Sustainable use of seas and oceans”
Themes 2 (Fisheries), 5 (Energy) and 6 (Environment)
Covering 11 marine and maritime topics thus representing a first step towards a
more integrated approach to marine and maritime research under FP7.
• Joint call (2010)
Call FP7-ENV-2010: “The Ocean of Tomorrow”
Theme 2 (Fisheries), 5 (Energy), 6 (Environment) , 7 (Transport) and 8 (Socioeconomics and Humanities)
Addressing major research topics requiring a cross-thematic approach such as
climate change and oceans, impact of human activities on coastal and marine
ecosystems, marine biodiversity and biotechnology, continental margins and
deep sea, exploitation of marine renewable energy resources. Guiding principles
are the cross-sectoral approach, multi-disciplinarity and integration between
disciplines, as well as the emphasis on ambitious projects.
