European Reference Networks (ERN) / Framework Partnership Agreements (FPA) |
Description of call "European Reference Networks (ERN) / Framework Partnership Agreements (FPA)" |
This Call for proposals aims at establishing multiannual framework partnerships by means of FPAs for a duration of 5 years (2017 to 2021), in view to provide financial contributions through subsequent specific grant agreements (SGAs) to ERNs. Signing an FPA does not guarantee annual co-funding. The actions to be funded are coordination, management and non-clinical activities of an approved ERN. Co-funding will be provided in the form of mono-beneficiary grants to the ERN Coordinator to run the ERN and implement all actions in order to fulfil the goals as provided for in the legal basis on ERNs:
The FPA proposal will present an action plan covering the period from 2017 to 2021 (5 years). This plan will include only those activities that are to be co-funded by the EU. Following an evaluation process, the successful applicants will be invited to sign the FPA covering that period. At that stage, signing an FPA will not result in a grant providing funding to the applicant's selected FPA proposal; it will be a legal commitment, serving as a basis for the partnership established between the successful applicant and Chafea for the next 5 years. Once the FPA is signed, it will make the signatory ERN eligible for receiving EU funding on the basis of an SGA proposal. |

Namely, an SGA spells out the applicant’s 12 calendar months coordination, management and non-clinical activities as an ERN |
