Funding 'Socio-economic Sciences and the Humanities' (SSH) will contribute to an in-depth, shared understanding of the complex and interrelated socio economic challenges confronting Europe.
Research in this theme will help us study and provide answers to questions related to:

- social cohesion, social, cultural and educational challenges in an enlarged EU
- sustainability, environmental challenges, demographic change, migration and integration, quality of life and global interdependence
Emphasis will be given to the following areas:
- Growth, employment and competitiveness in a knowledge society
- Combining economic, social and environmental objectives in a European perspective
- Major trends in society and their implications
- Europe in the world (covering a.o. migration, poverty, crime and conflict)
- The citizen in the European Union
- Socio-economic and scientific indicators
- Foresight activities, such as the future implications of global knowledge, migration and ageing
