Annex 1 – point 1 – point 1.5 – paragraph 1
Annex 1 – point 1 – point 1.5 – paragraph 1
A key added value of research and innovation funded at the Union level is the possibility to disseminate and communicate results on a continent wide scale to enhance their impact. Horizon 2020 will therefore include, under all of its specific objectives, dedicated support to dissemination (including through open access to research results), communication and dialogue actions, with a strong emphasis on communicating results to end- users, citizens, civil society organisations, industry and policy makers. To this extent, Horizon 2020 may make use of networks for information transfer. Communication activities undertaken in the context of Horizon 2020 will also seek to raise public awareness on the importance of research and innovation by means of publications, events, knowledge repositories, databases, websites or a targeted use of social media. In order to simplify the access to information and to develop an instrument with all the information demanded by the research community and, having regard the need for a transparency, Cordis, as a digital instrument should be revised and reformed in a more clear and flexible way.

Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 3 – point 3.1 – point 3.1.3 – paragraph 1
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 3 – point 3.1 – point 3.1.3 – paragraph 1
Urban areas are one of the largest consumers of energy in the Union and emit a correspondingly large share of greenhouse gases, while generating a substantial amount of air pollutants. In that context, there is a need of promoting integrated systemic urban development strategies that take into account: energy efficiency, accessibility, green spaces, adaptation of habitats and social integration. At the same time, urban areas are affected by decreasing air quality and climate change and have to develop their own mitigation and adaptation strategies. Finding innovative energy solutions (energy efficiency, electricity and heating and cooling supply systems), integrated with transport, waste and water treatment as well as ICT solutions for the urban environment are therefore crucial in the transformation towards a low carbon society. Targeted initiatives in support to the convergence of industrial value chains of the energy, transport and ICT sector for smart urban applications need to be envisaged. At the same time, new technological, organisational, planning and business models need to be developed and tested at full scale according to the needs and means of cities and communities. Research is also needed to understand the social, economic and cultural issues that are involved in this transformation.
