The European Commission has adopted in July the proposal for a Council Recommendation on “A Pact for Research and Innovation in Europe”, aimed at supporting the implementation of national European Research Area (ERA) policies.
The Pact defines shared priority areas for joint action in support of the ERA, sets out the ambition for investments and reforms, and constitutes the basis for a simplified policy coordination and monitoring process at EU and Member States’ level, through an ERA platform where Member States can share their reform and investment approaches to enhance exchanges of best practices.
The Executive Vice-President for a Europe Fit for the Digital Age, Margrethe Vestager, highlighted the importance of research and innovation joining forces to bring results to the market, and of Member states and the EU agreeing on strategic priorities to facilitate joint actions and learn together. The Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, Mariya Gabriel, pointed out how the Pact is “the first milestone in our ambition for a simplified and more efficient European Research Area”.
The Pact is aimed to be the long-standing foundation for the EU’s commitment to the new European Research Area (ERA). It will build on common principles for research and innovation in Europe, including values like freedom of scientific research, equal opportunities for all, free circulation of researchers and knowledge, inclusiveness and societal responsibility.
