Workshop on Practical Implementation of Alignment II – Novel activities, guidelines and Lessons Learnt

23 November 2016, 14.00-17.00, in Brussels

The workshop aimed at the development of guidelines and lessons learnt for novel joint actions to achieve alignment. Based on a variety of investigated case studies, practical guidelines how to achieve alignment via selected joint actions should be developed:

  1. Achieving alignment via strategic and policy cooperation
  2. Achieving alignment via integration of national RTDI projects and programmes
  3. Achieving alignment via institutional cooperation and networking amongst researchers
  4. Achieving alignment via sharing of research infrastructures and data
