GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

Proposals will bring together complementary and possibly heterogeneous national and European research infrastructures to provide effective access to an integrated wide range of RI services providing insights into the functioning, characteristics and impacts of Global Value Chains. Research infrastructures services will allow to assess to what extent the configuration of value chains helps to reinforce the resilience of production processes, investments and employment. They will also enable research in and analysis of the consequences of the international fragmentation of production. Proposals will support the provision of trans-national and/or virtual access to researchers as well as training for using the infrastructures, and activities to improve, customise and integrate the services the infrastructures provide. Proposals should duly take into account major European or international initiatives relevant in the field/for the scope. Proposals should as beneficiaries or as third parties, the necessary interdisciplinary set of research infrastructures of European interest that provide such services.  Proposals including only few of the research infrastructures services relevant to the scope will be scored lower.
