Enlarging the European Union Any European State, which respects the principles of liberty, democracy, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, and the rule of law, may apply to become a member of the Union. Treaty on European Union (article 49) The European Union has been enlarging ever since it was created at the beginning of the 1950s. Since then the Union has growth from the initial six members to the current 15 through a series of enlargements. In the beginning of the 21st century the process of enlargement is considered to be the main goal and a historic task for the Union so that the integration of the continent could be continued further by peaceful means, extending a zone of stability and prosperity. So the process of integration and adoption of new members is still continuing. The success of the EU and the values it is based on attracts other new countries to become a member of the Union.

  29. Lecture 3. Fifth and Sixth Framework Programmes The Fifth Framework Programme (FP5) constitutes the priorities for the European Union's research, technological development and demonstration (RTD) activities for the period 1998-2002. These priorities have been chosen on the basis of a number of common criteria reflecting the major concerns of the quality of life for European citizens and increasing industrial competitiveness. The FP5 is aimed to help solve problems and to respond to the major socio-economic challenges facing Europe. By focusing on a limited number of research areas combining technological, industrial, economic, social and cultural aspects the FP5 maximizes its impact. This program provides a coherent and truly European framework for supporting research and technological development as part of Community research policy and constitutes a four-year strategic plan for the period 1999-2002. During this period, it will stimulate transnational collaboration in research, particularly between industry and universities, and the establishment of networks of excellence. A budget of 13 700 million euro has been agreed for European Community FP5. Combined with 1 260 million euro for Euratom FP5 the budget for 1999-2002 Framework Program is 14960 million euro.

  30. Seven priority orientations of the Sixth Framework Program : Technologies for European Research Area creation Sustainable development based on consolidation of scientific potential Development of bio-technologies Support of nanotechnologies, creation of artificial materials and new production methods Research in aeronautics and space, the problems of environment protection and human life safety Guaranty of foodstuff Economics, sociology, political and humanitarian science Training course on the EU, FP5 and FP6 for Baltic States Lecture 3: Fifth and Sixth Framework Programmes Introduction to the FP6 Lecture 4: Participation in FP6: Opportunities for Pre-accession States FP6: Structure, Budget, Participants Types of programmes available for the pre-accession countries participation Rules and conditions of participation in the FP6 (including existing particularities for pre-accession states) Taking part in the programme: step by step Recommendations Contact information Sixth Framework Programme (FP6)
