Work Packages

WP5 Plan and develop collaborative work areas

boat imageThe Irish Environmental Protection Agency lead this work package. The objective of this work package is to prepare three common calls. The particular topics will be identified from work package WP2, WP4 and WP6. However, we expect that the specific topic or theme could be a common high priority area, an emerging need area, an 'orphan issue' or cross-cutting issues. A review will be carried out based on experience from the first and second joint call to review legal and administrative barriers to funding trans-national programmes in preparation for the second call.
