The Coordination Centre works on more effective solutions to the problems that arise during the implementation of projects funded under H2020 in Ukraine.
Moreover, the adopted resolution also comprises the establishment of a selection commission to choose the representatives and experts for the programme committees of the Framework Programme Horizon 2020. The commission's responsibility is to organise a democratic and transparent selection process of the Ukrainian representatives to the program committees of the Framework Programme. Participation of the Ukrainian representatives is provided due to the agreement on Ukraine’s association to Horizon 2020 in March 2015.
The main tasks of the Coordination Centre are to provide fast and efficient solutions on the issues that occur during implementing H2020 projects and to facilitate considerations of Ukrainian participants’ interests in the programme. In future it shall become a platform for developing an agreed position and to bundle the central state bodies’ activities in regard to the implementation of Horizon 2020 in Ukraine.
