Fish used as research model organisms for experimentation purposes have not beenconsidered.The approach adopted in this analysis is purposely very broad and therefore comprises aninherent error margin which is to be acknowledged from the outset. Despite its intrinsic fl aws,this analysis gives for the fi rst time a thorough overview of all activities funded across FP7 whichare relevant to interested parties involved in marine sciences and technologies or in maritimeactivities at large.8
Analysis andinventory of FP7 marine-related ed proposalsposa3. EXECUTIVE SUMMARYSnapshot of marine-related research within the 7 th Framework Programmefor Research – Where do we start?Through its successive Framework Programmes for research, the European Union has constantlyincreased its support for research activities within the whole fi eld of marine-related activities:ecosystems, sustainable transport and energy, space, biotechnology and food quality andsafety, to name some of the most important. Within the 6 th Framework Programme for researchand development (FP6), more than 600 million € have been awarded to research projects inthe maritime sector 7 .Similarly to the 6 th Framework Programme for research, there is no dedicated thematic areafor marine-related research within FP7. However, marine sciences and technology have beenrecognised among “the priority scientifi c areas which cut across themes” 8 in the 7 th FrameworkProgramme. As the oceans ignore physical borders, cover about 70% of the earth’s surface andplay a signifi cant role in regulating the Earth’sclimate, to name just a few characteristics, it isnot surprising that a great variety of researchactivities and technologies are relevant to themarine environment or the maritime economy.In fact, marine sciences and technology in avery broad sense are integrated into all themesof the “COOPERATION” specifi c programme,and especially into: Transport (including Aeronautics),Food, Agriculture, Fisheries andBiotechnology (KBBE); Environment (includingClimate Change) and Energy. Beyond thisthematic approach, coordination of crosscuttingmarine-related activities is also takingplace in FP7 with the aim of fostering crossfertilisationbetween themes, disciplines andsectors. 9 In fact, marine-related proposals areto be found in many other sections and specific programmes of the 7 th Framework Programmeand it is the ambition of this analysisto identify, analyse and increase awareness of7For an analysis of marine related projects funded within FP6, please see: “Marine related research and the future of the maritimepolicy”, p18-19 & p46-56 : http://ec.europa.eu/research/transport/pdf/maris_v10basse_en.pdf8Decision No 1982/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Seventh FrameworkProgramme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007-2013)9See for example the call for proposals on the cross-thematic initiative «the ocean of tomorrow» in 2009 and 2010: http://ec.europa.eu/research/agriculture/ocean/ocean2010/index_en.html9
