Marie Curie Actions in the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) — •Martin Lange — European Commission, DG Research, B-1049 Brussels, Belgium

FP7 is the EU’s current main instrument for funding research in Europe. The broad objectives of FP7 have been grouped into four categories: Cooperation, Ideas, People and Capacities. Entirely dedicated to human resources in research, the Marie Curie Actions in the People Specific Programme have a significant overall budget of more than 4,7 billion over 2007-2013. I will present the following specific actions under which the People Programme will be implemented:

• Initial training of researchers to improve mostly young researchers’ career perspectives in both public and private sectors
• Life-long training and career development to support experienced researchers in acquiring new skills and competencies or in enhancing multidisciplinarity and/or intersectoral mobility
• Industry-academia pathways and partnerships to stimulate intersectoral mobility and increase knowledge sharing between organisations from academia and industry
• International dimension, to contribute to the life-long training and career development of EU-researchers, to attract research talent from outside Europe and to foster mutually beneficial research collaboration with research actors from outside Europe
