Join the V4 R&I Liaison Offices in Brussels for their annual conference focused on how Research & Innovation (R&I)—with a strong emphasis on Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH)—can support a socially just and inclusive green transition in Europe.

Held in synergy with the candidate European Partnership for Social Transformations and Resilience (STR) under Horizon Europe, the event will gather policymakers, researchers, and societal stakeholders to address key challenges such as climate change, social inequality, and economic uncertainty.

Through expert panels, scientific discussions, and participatory dialogues, the conference will explore how R&I can:

  • Support fair and inclusive green transition policies
  • Enhance societal resilience and competitiveness
  • Promote social cohesion and sustainable growth

The event is jointly organized by V4 R&I liaison offices based in Brussels: Czech Liaison Office for Education and Research (CZELO), Slovak Liaison Office for Research and Development (SLORD), National Research, Development and Innovation Office of Hungary (NRDIO), Polish Science Contact Agency of the Polish Academy of Sciences (PolSCA) and in partnership with National Science Centre (NCN) of Poland, the coordinator of the Social Transformations and Resilience Partnership.

ROOT - Rolling Out OSNMA for the secure synchronization of Telecom networks

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022,  aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.

The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
