Information from the Commission • H2020 will probably not finance the BRICs. So we should focus on East European countries, Interlink partners, Nord African Countries and SEA EU Net.
Plans for 2013 • Participate in general trainings for NCPs by the Commission (fall 2013?) • Involve African and Asian NCPs, who have successfully cooperated with ENT. • Join info-day and training in ASEAN country on water technologies (around launch of H 2020) • Contribute to ICPC-NCP training in Brussels, organized by SEA-EU Net (fall 2013). (Euresearch is partner in SEA-EU Net) • CAAST-Net+ stakeholders' conference on Africa-Europe S&T cooperation (fall 2013)
Plans for 2014 • Support and Contribution to ongoing ICPC activities: • SEA EU Net Infodays on H2020 • CAAST-Net+ stakeholders' conference on Africa-Europe S&T cooperation • ZA Roadshow on Horizon 2020 (fall 2013) • Nord African Infoday(request from Egypt) • Re-contact earlier NCP project partners • Interlink partners (Asian countries) • Eularinetcountries (South American countries) • Cooperation with AfriCan Climate Project http://africanclimate.net/en/about • Cooperation with Ideal-Ist ICPC partners (http://www.ideal-ist.eu/representatives ) • (especially South America)
