The Ministry of Education, Science and Sport of the Republic of Slovenia organises a two day conference on “New European Research Area (ERA) - Towards a responsible knowledge driven society of the 3rd Millennium” which is part of the programme of the Slovenian Presidency of the Council of the EU.
On the first day a ministerial policy roundtable with speakers from the current Trio Presidency Research Ministers (Germany, Portugal, Slovenia) and forthcoming Trio Presidency Research Ministers (France, Sweden, Czech Republic) is foreseen and a panel discussion with stakeholders (among others European University Association (EUA), European Association of Research and Technology Organisations (EARTO), League of European Research Universities (LERU) followed by a Q&A.
On the second day, parallel “breakout” workshop sessions will take place on four different topics: ERA for Research Infrastructures, ERA for prospective research careers, ERA for Open Science and ERA for economy.
The aim of the conference is to produce recommendations for a better implementation of the new ERA.
The conference is open for everyone willing to shape the ERA. Prior registration is required.
All information can be found on the conference’s website

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
