Horizon 2020 - Trasporti, tutti i finanziamenti del work programme 2016-2017
E’ di oltre 936 milioni di euro lo stanziamento del work programme provvisorio 2016-2017 della sfida sociale 4 di Horizon 2020
La Commissione Ue ha pubblicato il programma di lavoro provvisorio 2016-2017 della sfida sociale 4, ‘Smart, green and integrated transport’, del programma Ue per la ricerca e l’innovazione Horizon 2020.
Obiettivo della quarta sfida sociale di Horizon 2020 è promuovere sistemi di trasporto efficienti, sostenibili ed ecocompatibili nell’Ue. Il programma di lavoro 2016-2017, che sarà approvato entro metà ottobre, si concentra su 4 aree di intervento:
- sviluppare di sistemi di trasporto efficienti e rispettosi dell’ambiente,
- migliore mobilità,
- rafforzare la comeptitività dell’industria europea dei trasporti,
- promuovere ricerche socio-economiche che supportino le politiche Ue in materia di trasporti.
