Dear MC members of COST Action MP1405,
Just a reminder about the petition against COST budget cuts, please continue to
spread the word and gain support -- see below. This could significantly affect
the last 2 years of our Action.
Best wishes,
Richard

Subject: Reminder: Strong concerns about potential budget cut to COST Framework
Dear COST Action Chair,
Thank you very much for supporting our petition for a stable and sufficient
budget. We are now
at over 4100 signatures, and have collected enthusiastic testimonials. We would
kindly ask you
to continue sharing our petition within your network.
This petition is part of our campaign started in the context of the
negotiations for the
European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), drawing budget from Horizon
2020. The COST
Framework is indeed facing a budget cut, which would impact the number of
future COST Actions
and most likely lower the funds available per COST Action.
The Committee of Senior Officials, our governing board, published an official
statement (please
see attached), shared with European policy makers.

Thank you for the attention given to this message.
Best regards,
