Inclusiveness in European R&I Partnership Programme

ERA-LEARN has published a new Report on Inclusiveness in European R&I Partnership Programme.

The report presents the results of an ERA-LEARN survey on inclusiveness targeted at H2020 ERA-NET Cofund and EJP Cofund Programme coordinators. The goal of the survey was to collect information on measures introduced by H2020 ERA-NET Cofund and EJP Cofund Programmes, in order to enhance the participation of the ‘Widening Countries’.

To sum up, the survey results demonstrate that participation of Widening Countries in EU Partnerships is limited and actions are needed to strengthen it. However, only by introducing a systematic portfolio of Widening measures throughout the entire Programme cycle can we obtain the expected outcome, namely a larger number of funded projects including organisations from Widening Countries.
