The objective of Part V of Horizon 2020 'Science with and for Society' (SWAFS) is "to build effective cooperation between science and society, to recruit new talent for science, and to pair scientific excellence with social awareness and responsibility".

The purpose of the public online consultation is to collect views and opinions on the strategy, scope, objectives, and expected impacts of the SWAFS Work Programme 2018-2020.

Contributions to the present consultation will feed into preparation of the next SWAFS Work Programme 2018-2020. The Commission expects to develop the content of Work Programme 2018-2020 during the fourth quarter of 2016 and first semester 2017, with adoption and publication of calls for proposals in the autumn of 2017.

The consultation is open until 4 July 2016.
