Horizon Europe

The European Commission Directorate-General for Research and Innovation (DG R&I) has launched a study to gain “a better understanding of, first, knowledge ecosystems across the European Research Area (ERA) and, second, the interactions between its actors (both organisations and individuals) with a view of formulating policy recommendations for the strengthening of these ecosystems.” The study runs from January 2021 to April 2022.

As part of this study a questionnaire is currently open on the topic “Jobs in research: skills, social security and working conditions”. This questionnaire is addressed to researchers and remains open until 17 May. The questionnaire can be found here as well as an introduction and endorsement letter from the European Commission on the background and aims of the two-year study.

STARGATE - Sustainable Aviation

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”.  It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
