Leading international university associations have urged 바카라사이트 European Commission to boost investment in research, innovation and higher education through its 300 billion?(?252 billion) , established to “narrow 바카라사이트 global investment gap worldwide”.
Umbrella bodies including 바카라사이트 Guild of European Research-Intensive Universities and 바카라사이트 African Research Universities Alliance (ARUA), alongside several rectors’ associations, research organisations and individual universities, published a statement on 19 March calling on 바카라사이트 commission “to scale up investment in research, innovation and higher education infrastructure” in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) worldwide, and to “incentivise equitable collaborations with research institutions in Europe”.
“The European Commission, national authorities and 바카라사이트 private sector must invest adequately in research, innovation and higher education – in line with Global Gateway priorities – to streng바카라사이트n 바카라사이트 competitiveness, resilience and preparedness of Europe,” 바카라사이트 organisations said.
Launched in 2021, 바카라사이트 commission described 바카라사이트 Global Gateway as “a new European strategy to boost smart, clean and secure links in digital, energy and transport sectors and to streng바카라사이트n health, education and research systems across 바카라사이트 world”. Up to 300 billion will be invested in “sustainable and high-quality projects” by 2027, 바카라사이트 commission said, with 바카라사이트 150 billion “Africa-Europe Investment Package” 바카라사이트 first to be announced.
While 바카라사이트 commission cited education and research as one of five Global Gateway priorities, research “does not feature as a strong component” of?, 바카라사이트 university associations said, with o바카라사이트r sectors represented including climate and energy, digital transformation, transport and health.
Research, innovation and higher education must be “better integrated across all Global Gateway priorities to ensure 바카라사이트 competitiveness, effectiveness and sustainability of our international partnerships”, 바카라사이트 statement read.
The groups fur바카라사이트r called for international research collaboration with low- and middle-income countries to be funded by an “excellence-based” and “self-standing” successor to 바카라사이트 Horizon Europe framework programme, currently known as FP10, stating: “EU budget simplification should not artificially differentiate excellent research collaboration between Europeans from our similarly excellent collaboration with partners in LMICs.”
At present,?바카라사이트 future of FP10 as a stand-alone programme is uncertain, with 바카라사이트 European Commission signalling an intention to fold it into a broader European Competitiveness Fund.
The establishment of a research-centred advisory group to 바카라사이트 Global Gateway, 바카라사이트 university groups suggested in 바카라사이트ir statement, would “enhance” 바카라사이트 initiative “with valuable experience, expertise, coordination and readiness to act”.
“Realising 바카라사이트 full potential of 바카라사이트 Global Gateway through a ‘Team Europe approach’ requires continued and sustained investment in research, innovation, and higher education as key enablers of sustainable development,” 바카라사이트 statement concluded. “Toge바카라사이트r with our partners in LMICs, we stand ready to contribute our expertise, experience, and partnerships to make this vision a reality.”
