In Science Business (3rd of October) 2023 Mag. Wolfgang Polt, director of Policies Institute reflects on the objectives of the Horizon Europe missions, the work to date and cooperation with policymakers.
“To deliver on their ambitious promises on climate and health, the goal-oriented research projects require a change in the political decision-making culture across Europe,” says Wolfgang Polt, who is leading the effort to promote transnational cooperation in support of the missions.
The EU mission project
Five missions that will shape European research in the coming years:
- Mission CANCER: Defeating cancer - Mission Possible
- Mission CLIMATE: A resilient Europe to face climate change
- Mission CITIES: 100 climate-neutral cities by 2030 - with and for society
- Mission OECEAN: Mission Starfish: Regenerating our seas and waters by 2030
- Mission SOIL: Healthy soils for a healthy life
TRAMI brings together the stakeholders of the missions to network and learn from each other. Next March, a major event will be organised as part of the Belgian EU Council Presidency to gain an initial overview of the status of the missions.
