The spirit of "Project Angels", greater cooperation and efficiency in R&D

Any progress or advancement requires good research, and all research requires resources and materials to carry out projects effectively and get results.

The European Union (EU), has noticed this, and that is why seeks a strong presence in the area of scientific research and technology to ensure greater competitiveness, this is reflected in new jobs.

The EU launched the so-called Green Paper, a discussion paper that presents ideas and invites interested parties to contribute their opinions and reports to promote tools that help simplify bureaucratic procedures to access funding.

The European Community (EC), through this book, made a proposal bounded "Common Strategic Framework", which links the three areas of knowledge, research, education and innovation. The EC study different ways to have research funding and to meet the objectives of the strategy Europe 2020.


We can see in the UNESCO's 2010 report, the U.S. and Europe are the most engaged in scientific and technological research in the world, something it just wake up in Latin America in R+D+i. For example, EC in the budget until 2013, target 57: billions of Euros to ICT, through cooperative partnerships.

There are several ways to contribute to the Green Paper. Through a questionnaire, easy to complete for any individual or organization concerned. Through proposals aimed at large organizations and associations that want to provide a deeper perspective. An interactive blog, where questions and issues from the Green Paper will be published, open for comments, ideas and debate. Events: Several events will be organized in different countries to get ideas.
The European Commission plans to organize the major event after the close of this period of consultation (go to May 20, 2011) to discuss the main results for the next EU budget after 2013.
