Abstract
(publishable)
This is the main call for projects nourishing applied research on challenges
covering the PRIMA topics. It is one of the main instruments to support the
Spanish STI system through competitive calls.
Main objectives are to stimulate the generation of the critical mass in RDI of an
interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral nature on the Challenges on food safety and
quality; productive and sustainable agriculture and on climate change and
efficiency in the use of resources, to promote a close relationship between
scientific and technical research, the development of new technologies and the
medium and long term business application of new ideas and techniques,
contributing to their transfers to products and services; and to reinforce the
international leadership capability of the Spanish System for STI and its
stakeholders, and contributing to improving the competitiveness of the business
sector and to articulate the RDI capabilities as well as the fostering and financing
instruments with other regional and international stakeholders, for developing a
true joint programming.
Rationale/Imp
act
Together with the support of infrastructures, human resources, and research
centers, this is the main instrument to support the Spanish STI system through
competitive calls. This main call for projects nourishes applied research in all three
PRIMA pillars.
Approximate figures are given of projects dealing with agriculture, aquaculture,
water management in the Mediterranean.
Objectives
The general objectives of the programme are (1) To stimulate the generation of
the critical mass in RDI of an interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral nature necessary
for advancing in the search for solutions according to the priorities established in
the Challenges on food safety and quality; productive and sustainable agriculture
and on climate change and efficiency in the use of resources; (2) to promote a close
relationship between scientific and technical research, the development of new
technologies and the medium and long term business application of new ideas
and techniques, contributing to their transfers to products and services; (3) to
reinforce the international leadership capability of the Spanish System for Science,
Technology and Innovation and its stakeholders, and contributing to improving
