  1. Sixth Framework Programme General structure

  2. European Research Area • EU to become the most dynamic, competitive and sustainable knowledge-based economy, capable of greater social cohesion • Promoting sustainable development • Improving education, training and innovation Strategy for research policy in Europe Creating a “single market” in research: integration as opposed to fragmentation increased investments in research

  3. Towards the European Research Area Focusing and Integrating Community Research 82% Strengthening the foundations of ERA 2% Sixth Framework Programme 1 January 2003 - 31 December 2006 17 500 M€* • Structuring the European Research Area 16% * This figure includes 1 230 M€ for the EURATOM part of FP6
