The COST documents and guidelines below are for COST Action participants and researchers interested in knowing more about COST Actions:

The COST implementation rules provide the basic and general conditions for the implementation of COST activities, with a specific focus on COST Actions.

The COST Action template centre provides documents that COST Actions may use to report on their activities.

The key documents include the official announcement of the COST Open Call; the vademecum, which provides the terms and conditions for the financing of Actions and other activities; the technical annex, which is part of the COST Action proposal; and the SESA guidelines that give information on the application and selection procedure. You will also find the guidelines for dissemination of your COST Action results, which is key to know how to communicate the networks’ outcomes.
