\item
  Describe and explain the overall methodology, including the concepts,
  models and assumptions that underpin your work. Explain how this will
  enable you to deliver your project's objectives. Refer to any
  important challenges you may have identified in the chosen methodology
  and how you intend to overcome them. \emph{[e.g.\ 10 pages]}

\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
  \emph{This section should be presented as a narrative. The detailed
  tasks and work packages are described below under `Implementation'.}
\makeatletter
\ifdim\@templateversion pt<4.0pt
\item
  \emph{Where relevant, include how the project methodology complies
  with the `do no significant harm' principle as per Article 17 of
  \href{https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=celex:32020R0852}{Regulation
  (EU) No 2020/852} on the establishment of a framework to facilitate
  sustainable investment (i.e.\ the so-called \textquotesingle EU
  Taxonomy Regulation\textquotesingle). This means that the methodology
  is designed in a way it is not significantly harming any of the six
  environmental objectives of the EU Taxonomy Regulation.}
\item
  \emph{If you plan to use, develop and\slash or deploy artificial
  intelligence (AI) based systems and\slash or techniques you must
  demonstrate their technical robustness. AI-based systems or techniques
  should be, or be developed to become:}

  \begin{itemize}
  \item
    \emph{technically robust, accurate and reproducible, and able to
    deal with and inform about possible failures, inaccuracies and
    errors, proportionate to the assessed risk they pose}
  \item
    \emph{socially robust, in that they duly consider the context and
    environment in which they operate}
  \item
    \emph{reliable and function as intended, minimizing unintentional
    and unexpected harm, preventing unacceptable harm and safeguarding
    the physical and mental integrity of humans}
  \item
    \emph{able to provide a suitable explanation of their
    decision-making processes, whenever they can have a significant
    impact on people's lives.}

\item
  Describe any national or international research and innovation
  activities whose results will feed into the project, and how that link
  will be established; \emph{[e.g.\ 1 page]}
\item
  Explain how expertise and methods from different disciplines will be
  brought together and integrated in pursuit of your objectives. If you
  consider that an inter-disciplinary approach is unnecessary in the
  context of the proposed work, please provide a justification.
  \emph{[e.g.\ 1/2 page]}
\item
  For topics where the work programme indicates the need for the
  integration of social sciences and humanities, show the role of these
  disciplines in the project or provide a justification if you consider
  that these disciplines are not relevant to your proposed project.
  \emph{[e.g.\ 1/2 page]}
\item
  Describe how the gender dimension (i.e.\ sex and\slash or gender analysis) is
  taken into account in the project's research and innovation content
  \emph{[e.g.\ 1 page].} If you do not consider such a gender
  dimension to be relevant in your project, please provide a
  justification.

\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
  \emph{Note: This section is mandatory except for topics which have
  been identified in the work programme as not requiring the integration
  of the gender dimension into R\&I content.}
\item
  \emph{Remember that that this question relates to the \uline{content}
  of the planned research and innovation activities, and not to gender
  balance in the teams in charge of carrying out the project.}
\item
  \emph{Sex and gender analysis refers to biological characteristics and
  social\slash cultural factors respectively. For guidance on methods of sex\slash
  gender analysis and the issues to be taken into account, please refer
  to}

\end{itemize}

\item
  Describe how appropriate open science practices are implemented as an
  integral part of the proposed methodology. Show how the choice of
  practices and their implementation are adapted to the nature of your
  work, in a way that will increase the chances of the project
  delivering on its objectives \emph{[e.g.\ 1 page]}. If you believe
  that none of these practices are appropriate for your project, please
  provide a justification here.

\begin{itemize}[label=\twarn]
\item
  \emph{Open science is an approach based on open cooperative work and
  systematic sharing of knowledge and tools as early and widely as
  possible in the process. Open science practices include early and open
  sharing of research (for example through preregistration, registered
  reports, pre-prints, or crowd-sourcing); research output management;
  measures to ensure reproducibility of research outputs; providing open
  access to research outputs (such as publications, data, software,
  models, algorithms, and workflows); participation in open peer-review;
  and involving all relevant knowledge actors including citizens, civil
  society and end users in the co-creation of R\&I agendas and contents
  (such as citizen science).}
\item
  \emph{Please note that this question does not refer to outreach
  actions that may be planned as part of communication, dissemination
  and exploitation activities. These aspects should instead be described
  below under `Impact'.}

  Research \textbf{data management and management of other research
  outputs:} Applicants generating\slash collecting data and\slash or other research
  outputs (except for publications) during the project must provide
  maximum 1 page on how the data\slash research outputs will be managed in
  line with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable,
  Reusable), addressing the following (the description should be
  specific to your project): \emph{[1 page]}

\begin{quote}
\textbf{Types of data\slash research outputs} (e.g.\ experimental,
observational, images, text, numerical) and their estimated size; if
applicable, combination with, and provenance of, existing data.

\textbf{Findability of data\slash research outputs:} Types of persistent and
unique identifiers (e.g.\ digital object identifiers) and trusted
repositories that will be used.

\textbf{Accessibility of data\slash research outputs:} IPR considerations and
timeline for open access (if open access not provided, explain why);
provisions for access to restricted data for verification purposes.

\textbf{Interoperability of data\slash research outputs:} Standards, formats
and vocabularies for data and metadata.

\textbf{Reusability of data\slash research outputs}: Licenses for data
sharing and re-use (e.g.\ Creative Commons, Open Data
Commons); availability of tools\slash software\slash models for data generation and
validation\slash interpretation\slash re-use.

\textbf{Curation and storage\slash preservation costs}; person\slash team
responsible for data management and quality assurance.
