On Friday 28 February, the European Commission adopted its proposal for a recommendation to the Council of the European Union on the policy agenda for the European Research Area (ERA) 2025-2027 (see EUROPE 13509/6).
As with the first Policy Agenda 2022-2024, the ERA’s activities serve as a three-year roadmap. The proposal is divided into four priority areas: - deepening a truly functioning internal market for knowledge; - taking up together the green transition and digital transformation and other challenges with impact on society, and increasing society’s participation in the ERA; - enhancing access to research and innovation excellence across the Union and enhancing interconnections between innovation ecosystems across the Union; - advancing concerted research and innovation investments and reforms.
“We are also celebrating 25 years of working together to achieve a single market for research and innovation”, the Commission stressed in its press release.
The adoption of this second ERA policy agenda by the EU Council is expected in May, under the Polish Presidency.
