COST eelarvet on tugevalt mõjutanud nn Junckeri pakt, võrreldes 2015. aastaga on eelarve vähenenud15,82%.
Eelarve piirangutest tulenevate probleemide tõttu on edasi lükatud ka järgmise avatud konkursi tähtajad. Uus kuupäev taotluste esitamiseks on 25. aprill 2016. a.
COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) on Euroopa vanim teaduse- ja tehnoloogia valdkonna koostöö. COST on riikide valitsuste vaheline raamistik, millega korraldatakse teadlaste koostööd. COSTi leping sõlmiti 1971. aastal ja allkirjastati 19 riigi ministri poolt. COST aitab vahelülina seostada erinevate riikide teadustöö projekte ning teadlaste vaheliste kontaktide kaudu moodustada hästi töötavaid teaduskooslusi.
Täiendav informatsioon COST tegevuste ning konkursside kohta on kättesaadav COST kodulehel http://www.cost.eu
