The High Level Policy Network addresses the topics of cross-border collaboration and the European Research Area to advise Science Europe and support its advocacy efforts.
Research funding (RFOs) and research performing organisations (RPOs) have distinct yet complementary responsibilities when it comes to navigating the unavoidable risks of international cooperation. Developing a culture of ‘responsible internationalisation’ requires sharing good practices, raising awareness, standard-setting and multi-sector collaboration.
A balanced approach requires the support of national governments to ensure that legal frameworks, clear policies and guidance are proportionate in addressing the risks, while promoting international collaboration.
On the occasion of the 2023 High Level Workshop, Science Europe is organising a campaign to showcase its Member Organisations' activities regarding international scientific collaboration with Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean, with a focus on academic freedom, integrity, and reciprocity.
The Money follows Researcher initiative is a voluntary effort by a set of European research organisations to enable portability of the research funding that they provide. Its objective is to avoid disruption of projects and to ensure continuity of funding when researchers move across borders within Europe.
This report analyses the underlying preconditions and efficiency of Lead Agency Procedure (LAP), based on the evidence available from the many LAP partnerships among Science Europe’s members. It also contains policy recommendations for research organisations so that they gain a more accurate understanding of the Lead Agency principles and are made more able to judge on its scope and limitations.
In this paper produced by the Scientific Committee for the Life, Environmental and Geo Sciences, the Committee argues that in order to strengthen international collaborative research, the national research funding organisations should consider increasing their efforts to widen the participation of various European countries and global partners in multilateral schemes, whilst fostering interdisciplinarity and knowledge integration. Moreover, a bottom-up approach should be adopted in order to collect research proposals that contain novel ideas and solutions, captured directly from the research community and users, thus enabling open innovation.
In a globalised research ecosystem, collaboration is key. This collaboration also brings challenges linked to the diversity of scientific and legal environments. The aim of this practical guide is to provide better and more efficient means for research organisations to apply a set of optional models for cross-border collaboration and to help them achieve more successful and easier implementation.
The Roadmap, approved by the Science Europe General Assembly in November 2013, is Science Europe’s action plan to contribute to the elements of a successful research system. It acts as a framework for voluntary collective activity, providing a long-term strategy for the association. The ‘Priority Action Areas’ are those in which Science Europe members believe that there is a potential to achieve tangible and substantive progress, and where they can add real value by working together.
