[eccr] Call for Proposals for COST Actions within Social Sciences and Humanities

The European Science Foundation Standing Committee for the Humanities is 
pleased to announce the new Call for Proposals for COST Actions within 
Social Sciences and Humanities.

Cost is an intergovernmental European framework for international 
co-operation between nationally-founded research activities created in 
1971, governed by the COST CSO and supported by the EU Framework Programme. 
COST supports coordination of scientific networks (Actions) and 
dissemination of their results, thus enabling scientists to collaborate in 
a wide spectrum of activities in research and technology.

COST Actions cover basic and pre-competitive research as well as activities 
of public utility. Scientists themselves, following the "bottom-up" 
principle, propose new Actions making COST an attractive forum for new and 
emerging topics.

The COST Office, operated by the European Science Foundation (ESF), 
provides scientific and administrative support to the COST Technical 
Committees and COST Actions. The Secretariat General to the Council of the 
European Union provides the secretariat to the CSO.
More information is available at the following address:

The COST Technical Committee of Social Sciences and Humanities invites 
proposals for new Actions (scientific networks). The Actions may fall 
within, or span, any of the disciplines of Social Sciences and Humanities. 
Any expert of the 34 COST countries 
(http://cost.cordis.lu/src/whatiscost.cfm) or the cooperating country 
(Israel) may submit a proposal, on behalf of a group of researchers.
Closing date for proposals is 1 October 2004. Proposals received after this 
date will be retained for later consideration under further calls.
Proposer must submit an abstract (1500-2000) characters) of their proposals 
no later than 22 September 2004, including a title and five keywords 
characterising the scientific content of the proposal.
More information is available at the following address:

Best regards,
