Annex 1 – broad lines of the specific objectives and activities – paragraph 15 a (new)
Annex 1 – broad lines of the specific objectives and activities – paragraph 15 a (new)
In order to take the challenge-based approach coordinated strategic planning of research and innovation activities is needed. Coordination can address fragmentation and improve the use of technological and infrastructural resources by the entire research community related to each challenge. Moreover, in the majority of cases, success in innovation requires a long- term commitment to sustain excellent research. Strategic actions and scientific steering can ensure expert input on policy from the outset, advance innovation and competitiveness by understanding the complexity of the innovation cycle and encourage participation from more researchers across borders. Strategic research and innovation coordination on each challenge based on scientific steering shall be established by Sectoral Steering Boards of independent high-level experts which will contribute to define research and innovation programmes based on the best leadership and will provide the impetus and instruments needed to promote interaction and synergies at a larger scale. The role of these Boards would be to provide on- going strategic advice on the actions being undertaken and planned in under Horizon 2020 and the related Community policy areas.

Proposal for a regulation
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.6 – point 1.6.2 – paragraph 2
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.6 – point 1.6.2 – paragraph 2
Research, technology development and innovation underpin capacities in space which are vital to European society. While the United States of America spends around 25 % of their space budget on R&D, the Union spends less than 10 %. Moreover, space research in the Union is fragmentaddressed in the national programmes of a fewthe Member States and of ESA. To maintain the technological and competitive edge Union level action is needed to coordinate space research, to promote the participation of researchers from all Member States, and to lower the barriers for collaborative space research projects across national borders. This needs to be done in coordination with the European Space Agency, which has successfully managed industrial satellite development and deep space missions on an intergovernmental basis with a subset of the Member States since 1975. In addition, the information provided by European satellites will offer an increasing potential for further development of innovative satellite-based downstream services. This is a typical activity sector for SMEs and should be supported by research and innovation measures in order to reap the full benefits of this opportunity, and especially of the considerable investments made on the two Union flagships Galileo and GMES.

Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.6 – point 1.6.3 – point a – paragraph 1
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.6 – point 1.6.3 – point a – paragraph 1
This entails safeguarding and developing a competitive and entrepreneurial space industry in combination with a world-class space research community to maintain European leadership and non-dependence in space technology including clean solutions, to foster innovation in the space sector, and to enable space-based terrestrial innovation, for example by using remote sensing and navigation data.

Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.6 – point 1.6.3 – point c – paragraph 1
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.6 – point 1.6.3 – point c – paragraph 1
A considerably increased exploitation of data from European satellites can be achieved if a concerted effort is made to coordinate and organise the processing, validation and standardisation of space data. Innovations in data handling and dissemination can also ensure a higher return on investment of space infrastructure, and contribute to tackling societal challenges, in particular if coordinated in a global effort such as through Global Earth Observation System of Systems, the European programme GMES, the European satellite navigation programme Galileo or IPCC for climate change issues.

Annex 1 – Part 3 – point 5 – point 5.3 – point e a (new)
Annex 1 – Part 3 – point 5 – point 5.3 – point e a (new)
(ea) Cultural heritage The aim is to research into the strategies, methodologies and tools needed to enable a dynamic and sustainable cultural heritage in Europe in response to climate change. Cultural heritage in its diverse physical forms provides the living context for resilient communities responding to multivariate changes. Research in cultural heritage requires a multidisciplinary approach to improve the understanding of historical material. Activities shall focus on identifying resilience levels via observations, monitoring and modelling as well as provide for a better understanding on how communities perceive and respond to climate change and seismic and volcanic hazards.

6.3.3. Secure societies The aim is to support Union policies for internal and external security and to ensure cyber security, trust and privacy in the Digital Single Market, whilst at the same time improving the competitiveness of the Union's security, ICT and service industries. This will be done by developing innovative technologies and solutions that address security gaps and lead to the prevocietal change and cultural heritage The aim is to contribute to an understanding of Europe's intellectual basis, its history and the many European and non-European influences, as an inspiration for our lives today. Europe is characterised by a variety of different peoples (including minorities and indigenous peoples), traditions and regional and national identities as well as by different levels of economic and societal development. Migration and mobility, the media, industry and transport contribute to the diversity of views and lifestyles. This diversity and its opportunities should be recognised and considered. European collections in libraries, including digital ones, archives, museums, galleries and other public institutions have a wealth of rich, untapped documentation of security threats. These mission-oriented actionsand objects for study. These archival resources, together willth integrate the demands of different end-users (citizens, businesses, and administrations, including national and international authorities, civil protections, law enforcement, border guards, etc.) in order to take into account the evolution of security threats and privacy protection and the necessary societal aspects. The focus of activities shall be to: (a) fight crime and terrorism; (b) strengthen security through border management; (c) provide cyber securityangible heritage, represent the history of individual Member States but also the collective heritage of a European Union that has emerged through time. Such materials should be made accessible, also through new technologies, to researchers and citizens to enable a look to the future through the archive of the past. Accessibility and preservation of cultural heritage in these forms is needed for the vitality of the living engagements within and across European cultures now and contributes to sustainable economic growth. The focus of activities shall be to: (a) study European heritage, memory, identity, integration and cultural interaction and translation, including its representations in cultural and scientific collections, archives and museums, to better inform and understand the present by richer interpretations of the past; (db) increase Europe's resilience to crises and disasters; (e) ensure privacy and freedom in the Internet and enhance the societal dimension of securityarch into European countries’ and regions’ history, literature, art, philosophy and religions and how these have informed contemporary European diversity; (c) research on Europe's role in the world, on the mutual influence and ties between the world regions, and a view from outside on European cultures.
