The COST Association invites participants to submit proposals for COST Actions, aimed at advancing scientific, technological, economic, cultural, and societal knowledge across Europe. The Open Call presents an exciting opportunity for researchers and professionals to contribute to the development and innovation in various sectors. Proposals are encouraged to take a multi- and interdisciplinary approach, promoting collaboration across diverse fields.
One-Step Application Process

What is a COST Action?
A COST Action is a network of researchers, engineers, and scholars who work together to achieve scientific breakthroughs and innovative solutions. These actions are funded for a four-year period, supporting networking activities such as meetings, training schools, and short-term scientific missions, without directly funding research itself. Participants from any scientific discipline can apply, and the scope of proposals is broad, aiming to contribute to the progress and development of Europe.
Encouraging Collaboration and Inclusion
The COST Association values proposals that embrace interdisciplinary collaboration and inclusion, providing a platform for researchers across Europe to work together toward common goals. This Open Call is a great opportunity for participants to make a meaningful impact by submitting projects that can drive Europe forward in numerous fields.
For more information, please visit the Documents and Guidelines page on the COST Association’s official website and begin your submission process on e-COST.
Conclusion
The Open Call for COST Action proposals is an excellent chance for individuals and teams to participate in Europe’s advancement by submitting innovative and impactful proposals. With a straightforward one-step application process, submitting your proposal has never been easier.
Don’t miss the opportunity to contribute to the scientific, technological, and cultural development of Europe—submit your proposal by October 23!
