Work has started on the 2025 – 2027 policy agenda of the European Commission’s ERA Forum for Transition, the expert group set up to shape the European Research Area (ERA) and create a borderless, single market for research, science and technology.
We are facing huge uncertainty and unique challenges: climate change, the threat of another pandemic, war, inequality, various attacks on basic rights, changes in the labour market, fake news and science denial, to name just a few. Young generations have to take on these challenges and do better, to endow their children a better world than the one they inherited.
