DEFINITION AND CONTEXT OF THE SUPPORT PROGRAMME
Support Program for ‘EU FP Coordinators’, has been established by TÜBİTAK for encouraging Turkish Institutions to lead consortia in projects submitted under EU FP calls and increase their success rate of them in European Union Framework Program (EU FP).
Potential coordinators, who wish to apply for the support, first have to go through the “General Application” process. Following the approval of the general application to the Coordinators Support Program, a new application must be made for each of the sub-supports and approval must be obtained from TÜBİTAK.
The applicant determines and declares the expert or expert organization from which they will receive the service in line with the criteria published by TÜBİTAK, during the sub-support application. If the selected expert or expert organization is found to be insufficient within the scope of the relevant criteria, the expert or expert organization must be changed, and new documents must be submitted to TÜBİTAK. The result regarding the suitability of the expert individual or organization is conveyed to the applicant via email.
There are five sub-supports within the scope of the program.
