News archive - Online consultation: Horizons for Social Sciences and Humanities
The Lithuanian Presidency of the European Union is currently preparing a conference to discuss the new role of SSH in the new EU research funding programme, Horizon2020, which will be launched at the end of this year. The conference will take place in Vilnius on 23‐24 September 2013. The conference's steering committee has decided to launch an online consultation on how to shape the roles of the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) in “Horizon 2020”
The objective is to learn more about the current situation and the ambitions of the research community, but also to identify the needs and structural problems of specific fields, with an emphasis on their potential to contribute to the success of the Vision Europe 2020. The consultation centres on five questions, in order to take the pulse of the SSH research community and prepare a declaration that will be handed over to research policy makers at the event.
Results of the consultation will be made publicly accessible online (in an anonymised format,
unless you explicitly state otherwise). They will also provide valuable input for the planned
Vilnius declaration on “Horizons for Social Sciences and Humanities”.
