The EU plays a significant role as a leader in setting international standards and provider of evidence-based solutions to global challenges.
This involves cooperation with international partners around the world, co-creation and sharing of scientific evidence, but also considerable EU investments in a number of areas such as digital, energy, research and nurturing scientific networks in various disciplines like climate and environment, circularity, food security, smart corridors, etc.
Our goals:
• Contribute to the adoption of an integrated approach to the external dimension of EU policies to maximise their positive impact
• Support the EU negotiating position in international fora and in accession and neighbourhood discussions
