One of the main objectives of the HELAS Forum is to stimulate, support and enhance the existing and new initiatives emanating from the scientific Helio- and Asteroseismology community, whose aims are in accordance with those of HELAS Coordination Action, described in the various Network Activities (NAs): Forum, Global Helioseismology, Local Helioseismology, Asteroseismology and Public Outreach.

The “Forum” Network Activity (NA-2) has the possibility to support scientists to:

1. Participate in already planned HELAS workshops or organize specific workshops and meetings, if they are relevant to  HELAS goals;
2. Generate and exploit synergies between HELAS activities and other networks;
3. Invite scientists belonging to the HELAS Community to a European institution related to the field.

The budget for those activities is limited  and  the principle of equal opportunities based on the quality and scientific interest is of major importance  in allocating the money. To see a series of guidelines on how the community can apply to this limited support click here.

Note as well that  other HELAS Network Activities have a given budget for invitations and synergies. If you are interested in working or collaborating with a participant in those activities, you should contact the corresponding responsible of that Network Activity.
