COST: Open Call. A simple one-step application process

The Open Call 2023 is now open. The next collection date will be 25 October 2023 at 12.00 (noon) CEST.

COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding organisation for research and innovation networks. A COST Action is an interdisciplinary research network that brings researchers and innovators together to investigate a topic of their choice for 4 years.

Participants are invited to submit COST Action proposals contributing to the scientific, technological, economic, cultural or societal knowledge advancement and development of Europe. Multi- and interdisciplinary proposals are encouraged.

The Open Call Action proposal submission, evaluation, selection and approval (SESA) procedure is fully science and technology-driven and will ensure a simple, transparent and competitive proposal evaluation and selection process, reflecting the bottom-up, open and inclusive principles of COST.

Participants planning to submit a proposal for a COST Action will need to refer to the SESA guidelines and to the Open Call Announcement available on the Documents and Guidelines page.
