Workshop on cooperation opportunities in the Environment thematic area within the 7 th Framework Programme

WORKSHOP ON COOPERATION OPPORTUNITIES IN THE
ENVIRONMENT THEMATIC AREA WITHIN THE 7 TH FRAMEWORK
PROGRAMME
1.
Background:
In the frame of the Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement with Brazil, the
Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC) has created a Brazilian Bureau for Enhancing the
International Co-operation with the European Union in the Science, Technology and
Innovation Area, being supported by DGRTD (SSA-INCO Project B-BICE).
The aim of the B-BICE is to foster and enhance cooperation in Science, Technology and
Innovation – ST&I between Brazil and the European Union. The Project will especially act as a mechanism to improve the participation of Brazil in the 7th Framework
Program, through the identification and dissemination of information concerning research priorities, possible partners, financial mechanisms, and the identification of
Brazilian and European partners for setting up project proposals. B-BICE will also help the Brazilian scientific and technological institutions in the preparation and negotiation process for those project proposals.
Another additional function for the B-BICE will be to keep a permanent contact and flow of information with the other three Latin American countries with bilateral cooperation agreement in ST&I with the EU – Argentina, Chile, and Mexico – in order to look for a coordination and integration of the four countries when preparing and presenting project proposals in response to calls.
In this context, the present Bi-regional workshop seeks to bring together relevant partners from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and the EU in the area of Environment
(including climate changes), in order to identify areas of common interest for collaboration and participation in joint proposals, and in particular in preparation of 7 th
FP work programme.

Objectives
The workshop was organized in the context of an on-going effort to improve and expand existing EU-LAC cooperative activities, both at the Community level as well as with its
Member Countries, in the area of science, technology and innovation and assist researchers, research groups, and SMEs to make better use of present and future
European ST&I promotion and support programmes and instruments. This effort has been implemented through the establishment of a number of national level support facilities in the four Latin American countries having association agreements with the
EU in the area of science and technology (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico). The workshop was directed to promote and assist researchers and research groups in their efforts to identify partnering opportunities and develop successful project proposals in areas of bi-regional interest.
Within this framework, the workshop had the objective of identifying the LA-EU common interest in R&D topics within the Environmental (including climate changes) thematic area of the 7 th
Framework Program. The workshop was a timely opportunity for the European Commission representatives to explain into more details the structure and content of the forthcoming Program and for each country represented to present its potential, priorities and needs in view of reinforcing bi-regional co-operation in this area during the coming years.
The workshop took place in Brasilia, Brazil, in the period from the 1 st
to the 2 nd
of June
2006, and was structured under a highly participative methodology, contemplating plenary sessions and working groups (WG) sessions. During the first plenary session, which took place in the morning of the first day, Mr. Pierre Valette, Director of the
Directorate of Environment of the DG Research, European Commission, presented the
7 th
FP in general and the Environmental thematic area in particular. Mr. Valette presented the Framework Program structure, budget, functioning and schedule, and pointed out, considering the Environmental thematic area, which are being considered as the most possible research topics to be included in the first call for proposals, to be launched in November or December 2006.
Mr. Valette presentation has offered an opportunity to explore one aspect that was not well understood in the 7 th FP documents available at the moment the Workshop was
3

realized: the functioning of the International Cooperation activities. The information available concerning how the International Cooperation Program (INCO) would function in the context of the 7 th
FP was its inclusion in the FP Thematic Areas. This merging would represent that INCO would be managed inside these areas and would not have an independent management.
However, during the discussions at the Workshop first plenary section, Mr. Valette explained that actions to support an international science and technology policy in the context of the 7 th
FP would have two independent objectives:
1.
to support and promote European competitiveness through strategic research partnerships with third countries including highly industrialized and emerging economies in science and technology by engaging the best third country scientists to work in and with Europe;
2.
to address specific problems that third countries face or that have a global character, on the basis of mutual interest and mutual benefit.
Taking into account these two objectives the International Cooperation activities will be implemented in the Cooperation Program in each thematic area and across themes through:
the opening of all activities carried out in the thematic areas to researchers and research institutions from all International Cooperation Partner countries and industrialized countries. In addition, there will be a particular emphasis to encourage third countries participation in identifying areas of mutual interest;
specific cooperation actions in each thematic area dedicated to third countries in the case of mutual interest in cooperating on particular topics. The identification of specific needs and priorities will be closely associated with relevant bilateral cooperation agreements and with ongoing multilateral and bioregional dialogues between the EU and these countries or groups of countries. Priorities will be identified based on particular needs, potential and level of economic development in the region or country.
Translating these two procedures into a more pragmatic way of operation, the first concerns the cooperation activities that will be carried out in the context of the thematic areas and will consider as possible topics to be included in the call for proposals those already described in the 7 th
FP Work Program (Cooperation Program). The second regards the cooperation activities to be developed by equivalent procedures of the former INCO Program. However, differently from the former INCO Program, the
4

research priority topics are not already identified, and will be negotiated taking into account the mutual interests and benefits of the targeted countries or regions. In that sense, after definition, the research priorities will be included in the call for proposals of the 7 th
FP.
The WG sessions were distributed in four pre-selected activities which have been identified taking into account the 7 th
FP Specific Program, theme 6 – Environment, as published in September 2005.
The four pre-selected areas are:
(i) Climate change, pollution and risks
(ii) Sustainable Management of Resources
(iii) Environmental Technologies
(iv) Earth observation and assessment tools
Before the development of the Bi-Regional Workshop, the four Latin American countries had made an effort to identify some key topics of common interest for cooperation within the activities, areas and sub-areas appointed in the 7 th
FP Specific
Program, which guided the discussions during the Workshop. In that sense, during the meeting each working group had made an effort to:

Review the situation of R&D activities in its area, highlighting strengths as well as weaknesses in view of future developments and cooperation;

Discuss, in the context of the selected activities of the 7 th FP Specific Program, the pre-selected topics of common interest for cooperation between EU and
Latin American research teams;

Identify potential key players and partners both in the EU and LAC in view of networking and possible future cooperation;

Report back to plenary for general discussion.
2. Workshop conclusions and recommendations
During plenary discussions and WG sessions, workshop participants reached a number of general conclusions and recommendations for the improvement of EU-LAC cooperation in the field of science and technology research and innovation processes, as well as specific recommendations for the specific topics pre-selected by the workshop organizers.
5

2.1 General comments and recommendations for the improvement of cooperation in view of reinforced international cooperation during FP7 and beyond
Concerning this item, it is important to stress that the observations and comments, concerning FP administrative procedures that were raised up during the plenary and WG sections repeated what succeeded in the Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology Bi-
Regional Workshop, that took place in Buenos Aires, in December, 2005. For that reason, the text that follows below duplicates the main conclusions of the mentioned
Workshop.
General recommendation for the improvement of cooperation activities touched on two main areas. The first one relates to the need for implementing simpler administrative procedures to facilitate a more active participation of LAC researchers and research institutions in the early stages of proposal development. The issue of the difficulties in both accessing information and in dealing with complex and, at times, contradictory, administrative rules and procedures, and how these difficulties acted in detriment of a more active participation for non-European researchers was brought up both in plenary discussions as well as during the discussions carried out in the four WGs.
In all cases it was recognized that the improvement and simplification of mechanisms achieved during the 6 th
FP were a great progress, but that a continued review process should be implemented. The increasing number of projects with important participation of non-European members is a strategic source of information and experiences that should be “mined” for new more effective alternatives to reduce complexities in accessing and sharing information and administrative burden, without endangering the transparency of the involved processes and accountability in project execution.
The second group of general comments and recommendations was in connection to the need to make a more effective and extensive use of existing regional and subregional initiatives as platforms for project identification and development. This could allow avoiding duplications and, consequently, a more effective use of all available resources, but also existing initiatives represent on-going discussions which could be of strategic value for increasing the depth and focus of the new projects to be developed.
2.2 WG recommendations and conclusions
The four Working Groups have firstly reviewed the original topics that were identified in the preparation discussions carried out in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Mexico.
WG 1, responsible for the discussion of Activity 1 – Climate change, pollution and risks, has repeated the structure presented at the beginning of the Workshop and has added some new research topics. The Group has not suggested possible projects and partners for the future 7 th
FP call for proposals.
WG 2 has split into four subgroups to discuss the Activity 2 – Sustainable management of resources: i) land use management; ii) water management resources; iii) biodiversity; and iv) marine environment. Each subgroup has chosen a different structure to present its conclusions, but in general they have maintained the orientation of discussing the topics for cooperation, suggesting new topics and possibilities of partnerships, indicating partners from Europe and from Latin America, besides the suggestion of
6

themes for projects. The Group has also suggested some rephrasing in the titles of the
Activity 2 and sub areas inside this activity.
WG 3 discussed the Activity 3 – Environmental Technologies, and has suggested a table to be filled out in the next months regarding the identification of possible projects and partners. The Group has also used a different table in order to differentiate the LA areas of interest from the EU areas of interest and has specified, in the “LA table” the sub areas and topics for projects identified during the discussions.
The Activity 4 – Earth observation and assessment tools – was discussed by WG 4 that has suggested new research topics for projects, has rephrased some areas and sub areas and has suggested new sub areas, referring to the structure presented at the beginning of the Workshop activities.
It was suggested in the final plenary that the main activities in the Workshop follow-up should be the identification of possible projects and partners in order to attend the calls for proposals. Concerning this follow-up, it is important to mention the role to be developed by B-BICE Project, which will have the responsibility to disseminate all the available information concerning the 7 th
FP and also to make efforts to enhance the participation of Brazilian and Latin American research institutions in international cooperation activities in science, technology and innovation with EU. In that sense, the
B-BICE team will appreciate whether the research institutions could request its expertise in order to disseminate information, translate the call for proposals, identify possible partners, and help in the preparation of project proposals to be submitted to the
7 th
FP.
