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.
