DG INFSO Unit E2 has launched a public consultation with regard to future research directions and priorities beyond 2008. They invite to contribute to the discussion and thus ultimately contribute to the shaping of the Work Programme 2009-2010. The Work Programme will drive ICT calls and operations in 2009-2010, with a total budget in excess of 2 billion euro.

The discussion was opened during Information Days held in December 2007. Future research directions were discussed and the dialogue was intended to pave the way for the new work programme in areas particularly relevant for the 'Content and Knowledge' unit, by setting boundary conditions, identifying key options and requirements, and addressing new trends and challenges that have emerged in the last year or two. You can find a copy of the presentation made during this session on CORDIS.

You are invited to make your contribution to Work Programme here.
The deadline for sending your contribution is 28 February 2008.
