The Pilot Call was addressed to universities, research organizations, enterprises from 14 JPI CH Countries and excellent research projects on cultural heritage involving a minimum of 3 partners from 3 different countries.

After a national eligibility evaluation process and a detailed common scientific evaluation, 10 Projects were selected for funding.
