PRIMA programmes will support research and innovation through distinct types of actions/activities:

• Section 1 Calls 2018: PRIMA-IS will launch calls for research and innovation proposals to mobilize the Euro-Mediterranean scientific communities, stakeholders and private entities and to support a wide range of research and innovation projects expected to produce a socio-economic impact in the near future.

Section 2 will focus on a unique call for Research and innovation Action RIA*[4], addressing the 9 topics reported below (according to national priorities) and the cross cutting issues among them.
