About COST

 


COST is an intergovernmental framework for European Cooperation in Science and Technology,

allowing the coordination of nationally-funded research on a European level. COST contributes

to reducing the fragmentation in European research investments and opening the European

Research Area to cooperation worldwide.

 

Individuals, Societies, Cultures and Health ( ISCH )

 

ISCH supports the development of knowledge and insights for citizens, democratic debate and

decision-making in the public, private and voluntary spheres. Interdisciplinary topics linking

social science/humanities perspectives with the natural, medical and engineering sciences are

particularly welcomed by this Domain, provided that the social science/humanities aspect is

predominant.
