European Commission is working on the work programmes for 2007-2008 period of the 7th Framework Programme (2007-2013) in many topics as Energy, ICT, Health, Environment, NMP, Transport, Food, Security, SSH, Capacities, People. We have prepared a summary of ‘draft’ work programmes for ICT and Health in order to underline the main topics and issues. We will continue to inform the web site visitors on the other work programmes of FP7.
DRAFT WORK PROGRAMME FOR ICT (2007)
