Introduction
HERA – Humanities in the European Research Area - is a partnership between fifteen Humanities Research Councils across Europe and the European Science Foundation, with the objective of firmly establishing the humanities in the European Research Area and in the 6/7th Framework Programmes. HERA has been designed to deliver new levels of co-operative research policy and practice in the humanities by embarking on an ambitious programme of communication, enquiry and sharing of expertise. Over a period of four years (2004-2008) partners are dedicated to the establishment of best practise in funding mechanisms, research priorities, humanities infrastructure and the development of a transnational funding programme.
HERA is financed by the EU Framework programme 6's ERA-NET scheme and was established from the ERA-NET ERCH (European Network for research Councils in the Humanities) formulated by the Danish, Dutch and Irish Research Councils.
Forthcoming activities

Three HERA annual conferences have helped to bring together, since 2005, Humanities scholars and policy makers to debate, in new ways, the role of Humanities in contemporary society under topics such as global development and culture, security and identity, the digital age and foresight. For the first time, this 4th HERA conference will feature researchers supported by all major supra- and transnational public research funders for the Humanities in Europe.
