Annual Report

The 2021 annual report, in addition to providing an updated picture of the evolving P2P landscape, it highlights examples of good practice from networks across the community as they seek to address specific challenges related to capacity building, collaboration and increasing their impacts as well as celebrating the achievements of some long-standing partnerships. It also summarises the strategic work of ERA-LEARN during 2021 and seeks to highlight the main links between the Horizon Europe European Partnerships and the public-public (P2Ps) and public private (PPPs) Partnerships that were funded in Horizon 2020.
