General Introduction WP 2018-20..to promote the policy goals of open innovation, open science and open to the world.
General Introduction WP 2018-20 Other measures have been taken in all work programme parts to facilitate international cooperation including around 30 flagship initiatives of large scale and scope on topics dedicated to international cooperation in areas of mutual benefit.
Open to the World 30 flagship initiatives with over 1 billion budget, e.g. - Canada for human data storage (personalised medicine approaches) - EU-Africa (Food and Nutrition Security & Sustainable Agriculture) - EU-China (food, agriculture and biotechnology) - All Atlantic Ocean Research Alliance Flagship - Mission Innovation Initiative (energy innovation) - Cooperation with multiple international partners on greener and safer aviation - Road transport automation and safety - Clean urban transport - Climate action in support of the Paris Agreement - EU-India (water) - Cooperation on 5G with Japan, Korea, China and Taiwan - Nanosafety - Structuring cooperation with Russia in research infrastructures. -.
Interim evaluation Clear directions: The mainstreaming of international cooperation across Horizon 2020 did not lead to a transversal increase of international participation across the programme. The decrease in participation of international partners in Horizon 2020 is a cause for concern. While Horizon 2020 has achieved a broad international outreach, international cooperation needs to be intensified and more efforts are needed to ensure that the programme fully delivers on its target for sustainable development.
Lamy report (Report of the independent High Level Group on maximising the impact of EU Research & Innovation Programmes) Horizon 2020 mainstreams funding for international cooperation throughout the programme. Contrary to its predecessor programme, it excludes a number of third countries such as Brazil, Russia, India and China from its funding. Participation by such partners has dropped noticeably compared to the past.
Rules for participation (10) In line with the objectives of international cooperation as set out in Articles 180 and 186 TFEU, the participation of legal entities established in third countries and of international organisations should be promoted.

Exceptions: (a) participation is deemed essential for carrying out the action by the Commission or the relevant funding body; (b) such funding is provided for under a bilateral scientific and technological agreement or any other arrangement between the Union and the international organisation or, for entities established in third countries, the country in which the legal entity is established. Funding
Restrictions: The relevant work programme may restrict the participation in Horizon 2020 or parts thereof of legal entities established in third countries where conditions for the participation of legal entities from Member States, or of their affiliated entities established in a third country, in the third country's research and innovation programmes are considered to be prejudicial to the Union's interests
International partner is any legal entity established in a non-associated third country which is not eligible for funding under Article 10 of the Rules for Participation Regulation No 1290/2013.
Look for Co-Funding Mechanisms Agreement between European Commission and Ministry of Science & Technology (MOST) Chinese participants in H2020 projects are in principle funded with 30 million/year EC expect that H2020 will contribute with 100 million/year to collaboration projects with China Most H2020 Work Programmes have extensive calls and priorities towards China

Horizon 2020 work programme 2018-2020 Introduction: solving problems which are more than could be tackled by one entity or country acting alone To be adopted October 27, 2017 EU funded research and innovation draws on the world beating excellence and helps teaming up with the best worldwide (pre-published info is available)
Clearly stated initiatives Flagships - maximise international cooperation for mutual benefit Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions - attract and retain researchers in Europe as well as to enhance mobility paths for European researchers Migration - mobility of highly qualified people (including researchers) offer great opportunities to meet challenges faced by the EU (skills shortage, demographic change, etc.), develop effective policies for integrating migrants in our society and economy

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) The work programme also reinforces international cooperation with Japan, South Korea, China, Taiwan and the US, a clear recommendation from the interim evaluation which noted a decrease in international participation as compared to FP7. The international dimension of ICT activities is reinforced through joint calls with Japan and South Korea on a set of specific topics, dedicated twining activities on 5G with China and Taiwan, as well as additional support actions towards improved cooperation with the US on 5G and Next Generation Internet.
