ExpectedOutcome:
Proposal results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:
- A strong and coherent graphene and 2D materials (2DM) initiative by providing key support functions, enabling participating projects to find synergies in their work and share best practice, and favouring interactions and synergies with national and regional initiatives, projects and infrastructures in the domain.
Scope:
Proposals should address the need to guarantee a sustained European leadership in 2DM, capitalise upon the investments made so far in graphene, exploit synergistically the scientific, technological and innovation outcomes of these investments and deliver benefits to the European society. Proposals should support the coordination of the projects of the Graphene Flagship initiative that would be selected under the call topics of the initiative. They should address all the coordination and support functions necessary to build a strong Flagship initiative, including: governance, community engagement, dissemination, communication, outreach, dialogue with the public, etc. They should also work on standardisation activities, creating new education and training curricula, promoting innovation, developing research and innovation roadmap activities, liaising with and supporting the coordination with relevant national and regional 2DM activities and establishing and supporting the dialogue with other international relevant programmes and initiatives in the field.
Proposals should involve and be driven by representatives of the relevant actors of the field (e.g., academia, RTOs and industry, including SMEs).
In this topic the integration of the gender dimension (sex and gender analysis) in research and innovation content is not a mandatory requirement.
