Objectives• Build a European Knowledge-Based Bio-Economy (KBBE)• Respond to social and economic challenges:

High quality food and sustainable food productionFood-related disorders (cardiovascular, obesity …)Infectious animal diseases and zoonosesSustainable agriculture/fishery and climate changeClean biomaterials from renewable bio-resources

• Involve all stakeholders (incl. industry) in research• Support EU policies (CAP, CFP...)• Respond quickly to emerging research needs

How to read the WorkprogrammeHow to read the Workprogramme

Basic tips… Before rushing into the list of Topics, please read the general

introductory chapters and the headers (i.e. the "philosophy"behind the KBBE concept).

Choose the "ACTIVITY" corresponding to your main interest:sustainability…, food…, non-food biotechs…

Focus on the "AREA" that fits best with your core expertise…

Look at the "TOPICS" that seem relevant to your research field,and ask yourself whether you would like to coordinate theproject, or be involved in the project as a partner.

KBBE.2011.1.3-01: New/next generation of researchers for Neglected Zoonoses at the animal-human interface – Mandatory ICPC

Call: FP7-KBBE-2011-5

This topic focuses of targeted measures aiming at improving the career prospects for young researchersin the animal – human interface of zoonotic diseases qualified by WHO as "neglected zoonoses".These diseases pose significant burden / …. / In addition to the scientific aspects of the diseases,socio-economic, cultural, institutional and decision making aspects should be also addressed with anintegrated and multisectoral approach. Coordination with ongoing EU and international activities inneglected zoonoses should be envisaged.

Funding scheme: Coordination and Support Action targeted to SMEs. The requested European Unioncontribution shall not exceed EUR 2 000 000.

Additional eligibility criteria: Mandatory participation of 4 different ICPC (of which at least 3 from Africa).

Additional selection criteria: SME Coordination and Support Action will only be selected for funding onthe condition that the requested EU contribution going to SMEs is 15% or more of the total requestedEU contribution. This will be assessed during evaluation and checked during negotiations. Proposalsnot fulfilling this criterion will not be funded.

Expected impact: It is expected to establish a long-term training programme that is open to promisingyoung scientists / …. / It should further manage a career development programme to support youngresearchers / …. / Breaking barriers and building bridges between animal health and public healthGlobal challenges: food security, global health, face climate change impact (which has a potentialimpact on the prevalence and distribution of some of the neglected zoonoses).
