ERACAPS

ERA-NET for Coordinating Action in Plant Sciences

Basic Information

Description

This ERA-Net on molecular plant sciences follows on from ERA-PG, but with a broader remit. ERA-CAPS' principal objective is to increase coordination and unite the resources of (predominantly) European research funding agencies with those of an enlarged Europe and beyond, to enable a pooling of scientific and economic capabilities of member countries. This will engender the creation and coordination of sustainable transnational plant science research programmes to meet the global challenges of food security and sustainability.

  • Biotechnology
  • Energy
  • Environment
  • Food, agriculture and fisheries
