The European Regional Meeting of the Global Research Council served to collect European input to the discussion topics for the 2026 GRC Annual Meeting: Open Science and Sustainable Research. The 2025 European Regional Meeting was co-hosted with HUN-REN and SFRS.
This webinar explored the latest initiatives in monitoring and evidence gathering for open science and research assessment reform, and marked the launch of our new scoping review.
This scoping review examines the contributions and unintended consequences of open science in realising results that align with key research culture values such as equity, openness, integrity, care, collaboration, and autonomy.
Commissioned by Science Europe, this review is the result of a collaboration between CWTS and the Know Center.
This report summarises the outcomes of the webinar on 'The Potential of Rapid Evidence Synthesis for Environmental Action.' It highlights key discussions on how rapid and living approaches to synthesising scientific evidence can accelerate environmental action and support evidence-based policymaking.
Science Europe's recommendations on the European Innovation Act emphasise support for excellent research, breakthrough innovation, and strong alignment with the upcoming ERA Act. The Act should maintain Horizon Europe’s autonomy for R&I-focused projects, foster talent circulation, strengthen research-industry collaboration, and enhance access to Research and Technology Infrastructures.
Science Europe is looking for a Policy Officer on International Research Collaboration to join its team in Brussels.
Applications are open until 5 October.
Science Europe has submitted its response to the European Commission’s Call for Evidence on the upcoming European Research Area (ERA) Act. The ERA Act represents a major opportunity to create a true single market for research and innovation – often referred to as the “fifth freedom” – by strengthening research excellence, shared values, and cross-border collaboration.
Science Europe's initial response to the European Commission's proposals for the next EU budget and new Horizon Europe, including a set of recommendations. While the proposals provide a significant budget increase and the Framework Programme remains self-standing, further clarification on its relation to the Competitiveness Fund is needed.
Science Europe made excellent progress on its research policy priorities in 2024, delivering key outputs in various areas, including science communication, research assessment, open science, the sustainability of research, international collaboration, and equality, diversity, and inclusion.
This webinar will explore the potential of rapid evidence synthesis in ensuring a fluid delivery of science-based solutions to policy makers and other stakeholders who work on the mitigation of and adaptation to climate change.
This report summarises the outcomes of the 28 February webinar 'Women in Science: Celebrating Inclusion and Shaping the Future of Research'. It highlights possible avenues for research funding and research performing organisations to improve working environments by addressing equality, diversity, and inclusion.
In May, Science Europe responded to a Call for Evidence by the European Commission on a European Strategy on Research and Technology Infrastructures. The response outlines a number of considerations to be taken towards these infrastructures, which are of fundamental and strategic importance to the ERA.
Science Europe has submitted its response to the European Commission’s Call for Evidence on 'A European Strategy for AI in Science', emphasising the need for a forward-looking, values-based strategy that supports innovation and competitiveness in Europe.
The second workshop on FP10 addressed the position of the upcoming Framework Programme for R&I in the Multiannual Financial Framework and its relation to the proposed Competitiveness Fund. The summary highlights concerns about prioritising short-term economic gain over fundamental research and SSHA disciplines.
Science Europe is looking for a versatile and talented Communications Officer to join its team in Brussels.
Applications are open until 18 June.
Science Europe has responded to the European Commission’s public consultation on the next Multiannual Financial Framework. It focuses on establishing a strong and ambitious MFF that strategically aligns national and EU research funding, and includes a ringfenced budget for FP10.
Science Europe is working together with CWTS and the Know Center to investigate the links between open science and research cultures.
Science Europe proudly presents its statement, 'Working Together for a Strong and Standalone FP10', reaffirming the vital role of a dedicated EU Research and Innovation Framework Programme. Building on shared commitments from the European Parliament, EU research ministers, and the ERC and EIC, we advocate for an ambitious FP10 within the 2027 Multiannual Financial Framework. This programme must prioritise scientific freedom, curiosity-driven research, and a robust, independent R&I ecosystem to secure Europe’s long-term strategic, societal, and competitive future.
The culmination of several years of discussions, activities, positions, and events – Science Europe presents a Vision and Framework for Research Cultures that aims to synthesise research policy advances towards the shared objective of supporting knowledge advancement and enabling the quality and impact of research.
Science Europe presents ‘A Vision and Framework for Research Cultures’. It synthesises our recent work across numerous policy topics focussing them on the shared objective of R&I systems to advance knowledge and enable the quality and impact of research.
Science Europe has responded to the European Commission’s call for evidence issued to evaluate public procurement directives, emphasising the opportunity to align them with the EU’s green and innovative economy goals. By incorporating environmental criteria, such as energy savings and circular economy principles, public procurement can become a driver of sustainable practices within research organisations. Our recommendations highlight tangible benefits and call for measures to ensure procurement processes contribute to environmental sustainability, advancing the aims of the European Green Deal.
On International Women's Day, Science Europe reaffirms its commitment to advancing equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in the European research ecosystem as an essential part of research quality. We aim to promote a research ecosystem where all scholars can realise their potential regardless of gender, sexual orientation, religion, disabilities, ethnic origin, or social background.
To mark the 10th anniversary of the International Day for Women and Girls in Science, and ahead of International Women's Day, this Science Europe webinar delves into the importance of integrating equity, diversity, and inclusion into research systems and processes. What role can research organisations play in supporting inclusive practices that encourage diverse research environments and empower underrepresented groups to drive scientific excellence?
Leaders and senior-level representatives of Science Europe Member Organisations met in Brussels on 18 and 19 February to discuss Science Europe’s priorities for the upcoming 10th EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (FP10). The recommendations in the landmark reports by Enrico Letta, Mario Draghi, and the Expert Group on the Interim Evaluation of Horizon Europe led by Manuel Heitor were taken into account. The event was kindly hosted by the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) in Brussels, with the Commissioner for Startups, Research and Innovation Ekaterina Zaharieva participating in the opening session.
This statement presents the conclusions of these discussions.
