The
topics of the call.** **
For
this third call, proposals will address one or both the priority areas
identified: (i) the development and/or evolution of EU – US Experimental
Platforms for NGI experiments,
and/or (ii) experimentation of results with key NGI technologies addressing NGI priority topics where
results are mature enough for transatlantic experiments, including:

a) Privacy
and Trust enhancing technologies;

b) Decentralised
data governance;

c) Discovery
and identification technologies;

d) Strengthening
internet trustworthiness with electronic identities;

e) Greening
the Internet: A Sustainable and Climate-friendly NGI. 

Internet **Trustworthiness and Greening the
internet are new topics introduced under this call. “Strengthening Internet Trustworthiness with
electronic identities”
embraces self-sovereign
identity (SSI), federated and/or decentralised technologies for supporting
internet-wide e-identities with various levels of identification, reputation
and trust, to serve as a basis for new business models for verifying and
valuating personal data. The second new topic, “Greening the Internet: a
Sustainable and Climate-friendly NGI”** focuses on solutions to contribute to
the fight against climate change, awareness of the environmental impact of the
Internet, and promotion of technologies that help reduce energy consumption and
carbon emission.
