\begin{itemize}
\item
Describe and explain the overall methodology, including the concepts,
models and assumptions that underpin your work. Explain how this will
enable you to deliver your project's objectives. Refer to any
important challenges you may have identified in the chosen methodology
and how you intend to overcome them. \emph{{[}e.g. 10 pages{]}}
\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
\emph{This section should be presented as a narrative. The detailed
tasks and work packages are described below under `Implementation'.}
\item
\emph{Where relevant, include how the project methodology complies
with the `do no significant harm' principle as per Article 17 of
\href{https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=celex:32020R0852}{Regulation
(EU) No 2020/852} on the establishment of a framework to facilitate
sustainable investment (i.e. the so-called \textquotesingle EU
Taxonomy Regulation\textquotesingle). This means that the methodology
is designed in a way it is not significantly harming any of the six
environmental objectives of the EU Taxonomy Regulation.}
\item
\emph{If you plan to use, develop and/or deploy artificial
intelligence (AI) based systems and/or techniques you must
demonstrate their technical robustness. AI-based systems or techniques
should be, or be developed to become:~}
\begin{itemize}
\item
\emph{technically robust, accurate and reproducible, and able to
deal with and inform about possible failures, inaccuracies and
errors, proportionate to the assessed risk they pose~}
\item
\emph{socially robust, in that they duly consider the context and
environment in which they operate~}
\item
\emph{reliable and function as intended, minimizing unintentional
and unexpected harm, preventing unacceptable harm and safeguarding
the physical and mental integrity of humans~}
\item
\emph{able to provide a suitable explanation of their
decision-making processes, whenever they can have a significant
impact on people's lives.}
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
\item
Describe any national or international research and innovation
activities whose results will feed into the project, and how that link
will be established; \emph{{[}e.g. 1 page{]}}
\item
Explain how expertise and methods from different disciplines will be
brought together and integrated in pursuit of your objectives. If you
consider that an inter-disciplinary approach is unnecessary in the
context of the proposed work, please provide a justification.
\emph{{[}e.g. 1/2 page{]}}
\item
For topics where the work programme indicates the need for the
integration of social sciences and humanities, show the role of these
disciplines in the project or provide a justification if you consider
that these disciplines are not relevant to your proposed project.
\emph{{[}e.g. 1/2 page{]}}
\item
Describe how the gender dimension (i.e. sex and/or gender analysis) is
taken into account in the project's research and innovation content
\emph{{[}e.g. 1 page{]}. If} you do not consider such a gender
dimension to be relevant in your project, please provide a
justification.
\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
\emph{Note: This section is mandatory except for topics which have
been identified in the work programme as not requiring the integration
of the gender dimension into R\&I content.}
\item
\emph{Remember that that this question relates to the \uline{content}
of the planned research and innovation activities, and not to gender
balance in the teams in charge of carrying out the project.}
\item
\emph{Sex and gender analysis refers to biological characteristics and
social/cultural factors respectively. For guidance on methods of sex /
gender analysis and the issues to be taken into account, please refer
to}
\url{https://ec.europa.eu/info/news/gendered-innovations-2-2020-nov-24_en}
\end{itemize}
\item
Describe how appropriate open science practices are implemented as an
integral part of the proposed methodology. Show how the choice of
practices and their implementation are adapted to the nature of your
work, in a way that will increase the chances of the project
delivering on its objectives \emph{{[}e.g. 1 page{]}}. If you believe
that none of these practices are appropriate for your project, please
provide a justification here.
\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
\emph{Open science is an approach based on open cooperative work and
systematic sharing of knowledge and tools as early and widely as
possible in the process. Open science practices include early and open
sharing of research (for example through preregistration, registered
reports, pre-prints, or crowd-sourcing); research output management;
measures to ensure reproducibility of research outputs; providing open
access to research outputs (such as publications, data, software,
models, algorithms, and workflows); participation in open peer-review;
and involving all relevant knowledge actors including citizens, civil
society and end users in the co-creation of R\&I agendas and contents
(such as citizen science).}
\item
\emph{Please note that this question does not refer to outreach
actions that may be planned as part of communication, dissemination
and exploitation activities. These aspects should instead be described
below under `Impact'.}
\end{itemize}
\item
Research \textbf{data management and management of other research
outputs:} Applicants generating/collecting data and/or other research
outputs (except for publications) during the project must provide
maximum 1 page on how the data/ research outputs will be managed in
line with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable,
Reusable), addressing the following (the description should be
specific to your project): \emph{{[}1 page{]}}
\begin{quote}
\textbf{Types of data/research outputs} (e.g. experimental,
observational, images, text, numerical) and their estimated size; if
applicable, combination with, and provenance of, existing data.
\textbf{Findability of data/research outputs:} Types of~persistent and
unique~identifiers (e.g. digital object identifiers)~and~trusted
repositories~that will be used.
\textbf{Accessibility of data/research outputs:}~IPR considerations and
timeline for open access (if open access not provided, explain why);
provisions for access to restricted data for verification purposes.
\textbf{Interoperability of data/research outputs:} Standards, formats
and vocabularies for data and metadata.
\textbf{Reusability of data/research outputs}:~ Licenses for data
sharing and re-use (e.g. Creative Commons, Open Data
Commons);~availability of tools/software/models for data generation and
validation/interpretation /re-use.
\textbf{Curation and storage/preservation costs}; person/team
responsible for data management and quality assurance.
\end{quote}
\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
\emph{Proposals selected for funding under Horizon Europe will need to
develop a~detailed data management plan (DMP) for making their
data/research outputs findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable
(FAIR) as a deliverable by month 6 and revised towards the end of a
project's lifetime.}
\item
\emph{For guidance on open science practices and research data
management, please refer to the relevant section of the
