II. Integrating SSH across

Horizon 2020


SSH in Horizon 2020

"Social sciences and humanities (SSH) research will be

fully integrated into each of the general objectives

of Horizon 2020"

Horizon 2020 regulation


European Research Council

Frontier research by the best individual teams

Future and Emerging Technologies

Collaborative research to open new fields of innovation

Marie Curie-Sklodowska actions

Opportunities for training and career development

Research infrastructures (including e-infrastructure) -

Ensuring access to world-class facilities

Excellent science


SSH in Excellent Science

The European Research Council (ERC) is already a

major funding source for investigator-driven frontier

research. About 17% of the ERC-budget will be

allocated to SSH

Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MCA) give

opportunities for greater mobility and network building.

The SSH share is 11-12%

Several major research infrastructures in the SSH are

supported by FP7/H2020: CESSDA, DARIAH, CLARIN,

ESS, SHARE, InGRID


Leadership in enabling & industrial technologies (ICT,

nanotechnologies, materials, biotechnology, manufacturing, space)

Access to risk finance

Leveraging private finance and venture capital for research and

innovation

Innovation in SMEs

Fostering all forms of innovation in all types of SMEs

Industrial leadership


SSH in Industrial Leadership

Strengthening the cultural and social aspects of innovation

SSH as a source of creativity in development of services and products

Societal aspects of new and emerging technologies (e.g. societal acceptance; citizens' participation in decision-shaping; ethical aspects; new technologies and changing lifestyles)

Business and management models


1 Health, demographic change and wellbeing

2 Agriculture and forestry, marine and maritime and

inland water research and the bioeconomy

3 Secure, clean and efficient energy

4 Smart, green and integrated transport

5 Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and

raw materials

6 Inclusive, innovative and reflective societies

7 Secure societies

Societal Challenges


SSH in Societal Challenges

SC1: Understanding the determinants of health and

optimising the effectiveness of healthcare provisions

SC2: Support to policies empowering rural areas and

promoting informed consumer choices

SC3: Robust decision making on energy policy and a

transition to a sustainable energy system


SSH in Societal Challenges

SC4: Supporting evidence based transport policy and

foresight, urban mobility

SC5: Support to CC mitigation and adaptation

strategies, resource efficiency initiatives towards a

green economy

SC7: Cultural and socio-economic aspects of security,

risk and management issues (including legal & human

rights)


Example of SSH Topics ("flagged")

SC1- Health - Call PHC 22–2015 'Promoting mental

wellbeing in the ageing population'

SC3 – Energy - Call EE 11–2014 'Socioeconomic

research on energy efficiency'

SC7 – Security - Call FCT 14–2015 'Understanding the

underlying social, psychological and economic aspects

of the genesis, methods and motivation of organized

crime (including cyber related offenses)'


Integrating SSH: practical steps

Flagging tool will be provided, giving immediate link to certain

topics which correspond to important horizontal issues

The expert advisory groups of each Societal Challenge

include SSH scientists

The evaluation panels of the Societal Challenges need to

include experts with SSH competences

A regular review of the implementation of interdisciplinarity

in each Societal Challenge should also be organised during the

lifetime of Horizon 2020


III. Societal Challenge 6

and WP 2014 / 2015


Societal Challenge 6 objective

"To foster a greater understanding of Europe, provide

solutions and support inclusive, innovative and reflective

European societies in a context of unprecedented

transformations and growing global interdependencies"

Horizon 2020 Regulation

"The specific objective of the societal challenge 'Europe in a

changing world: Inclusive, innovative and reflective societies'

will support social sciences and humanities research by

focusing on inclusive, innovative and reflective societies"

Horizon 2020 Specific Programme


Societal Challenge 6 structure

Inclusive Societies:

Smart, sustainable and inclusive growth Building resilient, inclusive, participatory, open and creative societies Europe's role as a global actor Sustainable & inclusive environments - spatial & urban planning

Innovative societies: Strengthening the evidence-base and support for the IU and ERA New forms of innovation, social innovation and creativity Innovative, creative and productive potential of all generations Cooperation with third countries

Reflective societies: European heritage (memory, identity) European countries' and regions' history Europe's role in the world; intercultural relations


Developing the Work Programme

Reconciling various inputs from various actors

The Commission drafts the Work Programme in consultation

with various stakeholders from the scientific community and

civil society (written input, workshops, ad-hoc meetings, AG)

Involvement of Commission Services in drafting the WP for

Societal Challenge 6: 12 Units from 5 Directorates and 2 DGs

(RTD & CNECT)

Consultation with other DGs (inter-service consultation)

Programme Committee consultations (Member States)
