Estonian Research Council (similarly to the Ministry of Econimic Affairs and Communication) participates at the framework programme projects in order to receive funding for different research projects  that in turn aplifiy the participation of framework programmes and increase international research cooperation (for example: organising public events/trainings/conferences for researchers, supporting international collaboration, participation from international networks, creating study programmes and materials, organising competitions). From 16 projects Estonian Research Council has participated or is continuously participating, 6 are projects directly supporting reserach cooperation (funding goes to researchers) and 10 are supporting the Estonian Research Council’s coordination activities, e.g. NCP projects and other projects supporting the organisation of international research cooperation.
