Enhancing EU R&I Horizon Europe

The Communication ‘Implementation of the European Research Area (ERA): Strengthening Europe’s Research and Innovation: The ERA’s Journey and Future Directions’ has been adopted on 22 October by the Commission.

The Communication takes stock and assesses the progress made since the previous Communication ‘A new ERA for Research and Innovation‘ (2020) in which the four key objectives are laid out:  

  • Prioritising investments and reforms
  • Improving access to excellence
  • Translating R&I results into the economy
  • Deepening the ERA

and identifies remaining challenges which set the direction for future activities.

More information can be found in the European Commission press release, including a factsheet on the Communication and the videos ‘The #EUResearchArea over time: 2000 until today’ and ‘ERA testimonials’.
