 Research Inventory Service

Monitoring of the European dimension of research policy

Description

The specific objective of this project was the development and the implementation of a “European section” on the ERAWATCH website. This entailed developing a framework for the collection of data and filling out of a series of individual templates on European R&D activities.

The project entailed accomplishing the following tasks:

  • Draw boundaries for European level R&D activities;
  • Draw up a monitoring framework for the collection and presentation of European level activities;
  • Design a dedicated template for the European level, including guidelines for it’s implementation;
  • Produce at least 50 templates on documents, organisations and programmes on the EU level;
  • Link and cross-reference the information to the source and to information already in the ERAWATCH Inventory;
  • Develop a way of presenting the European level on the website that follows the current ERAWATCH style and takes into account the characteristics of the European Research Area;
  • Propose a “search strategy” for combining the information on the EU level with that on the national level;
  • Develop proposals for a “European section” with its own menu and developed so as to make searching and extracting information user-friendly;
  • Liaise with the contractors to ensure that the European level information is entered into KMI.
