The Council of Ministers approved on 5 October 2012, the launch of the first phase (2012-2018) of the recurrent Research Framework Programme BRAIN-be (Belgian Research Action through Interdisciplinary Networks).

The programme is organised around six themes:

  • Ecosystems, biodiversity, life history
  • Geosystems universe and climate
  • Cultural, historical and scientific heritage
  • Federal government strategies
  • Major societal challenges
  • Collections Management

and relies on the funding of two types of research projects:

  • network projects of four years with the possibility of two-year projects and
  • pioneer projects of up to two years.

More information about the programme can be found on the site www.belspo.be/BRAIN-be.

This call will soon be published in the "Moniteur belge".
