Brazil in H2020
In December 2014 CONFAP and the Delegation of the EU in Brazil sign a “Letter of Intent” to promote Brazilian participation within Horizon 2020
Currently almost all State Funding Agencies (FAPs) in Brazil which are part of CONFAP have signed the Accession to the Letter of Intent
Some FAPs have chosen/can choose to sign a similar letter directly with the EU Delegation
Existing local co-funding mechanisms in Brazil
Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo - FAPESP
Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa e Inovação do Estado de Santa Catarina- FAPESC
Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Goiás - FAPEG

Brazil in H2020
CONFAP is assisting its FAPs for fine-tuning, finalizing and launching their own Guidelines which define the implementation of the Letter of Intent
What are the Guidelines? The Guidelines indicate the operational framework on how
each FAP shall support the participation of its researchers/participants within projects funded under Horizon 2020
In practice, the Guidelines can be considered like a parallel call for the submission of research and innovation proposals in coordination with Horizon 2020
Each FAP shall adjust them to their own needs, funding capacities, research & innovation priorities, funding lines
Brazil in H2020
Projects positively evaluated by the FAP shall be only approved if also approved under H2020

Topic SC1-PM-03-2017 Diagnostic characterisation of rare diseases
Summary - The aim of this research should be to apply genomics and/or other –omics and/or other high-throughput approaches for the molecular characterisation of rare diseases in view of developing molecular diagnoses for a large number of undiagnosed rare diseases. Undiagnosed rare diseases may range from a group of unnamed disorders with common characteristics to a phenotypically well described disease or group of diseases with an unknown molecular basis.
The proposal should enable and foster scientific exchange between stakeholders from countries and regions with different practices and strategies of rare disease diagnostics.

Topic SC1-PM-15-2017 Personalised coaching for well-being and care of people as they age
Summary - This topic aims at developing a proof of concept of radically new solutions for a personalised "virtual coach", building upon intelligent ICT environments, access to relevant physiological and behavioural data, new forms of accessible interaction based on tangible user interaction concepts, open platforms and emotional computing.
The "coach" should provide personalised advice, guidance and follow-up for key age related issues in daily life which impact the person's ability to remain active and independent, for example diet, physical activity, risk avoidance, preventive measures, lifestyle and activity management, leisure, social participation and overall wellness.
