2. Research Projects
CAEPS develops its activities within the framework of the public research programs CICYT, FIS and European Comission. It is also involved in contractual activities with public administrations and private institutions that have a more applied focus. The results of the research financed by public programs are to be published preferably in academic journals indexed in SSCI. The results of the consultancy activities are to be used as a guide in public and private decision making and to this aim will be published as working papers or books.
