- Be the result of the work of the Action
- Be authored by Action participants from at least three different COST Full/Cooperating and Partner Member (or two COST Full/Cooperating and Partner Member and 1 Near Neighbour Country) or authored by Action participants from two different COST Full/Cooperating and Partner Member if resulting from an STSM funded by the Action.
- Abide by the following Communication, Dissemination and Valorisation of the COST Action results requirements:
- Be submitted to an open access journal or one where there is an option for open access publication - this should be a journal that is both relevant to the COST Action and of high quality in the field
- To be made widely available
- Acknowledging COST and EU support
- Be already submitted or ready to be submitted (the intended submission date will be required)
- Be published (at least in early online access or similar) by the end of the Grant Period (based on submitted journal’s average publication date); if this has not occurred then a
reapplication for funding must be made in the new grant period. - Be supported by invoices dated within the Grant Period
- Respect the non-for-profit principle: dissemination and communication products issued and/or purchased and paid with COST funds cannot be sold to Action participants or the general public.
