Example of cooperation – Joint funding scheme SEA-EU

• instrument for the funding of bi-regional, multi-lateral research and innovation projects

• Joint Calls for Proposals

• A typical project funded under the JFS would last for 3 years and usually costs such as personnel, (small) equipment, consumables, travel and workshops are eligible.

• Yet, this can vary from funder to funder since the national rules apply.

• The central management of the JFS is operated by the European Commission's Service Facility in Support of the Strategic Development of International Cooperation in Research and Innovation.

BACKGROUND SLIDES

But where do we stand with international cooperation with the European Union


Crucial importance of brains-circulation and joint initiatives across the World, BUT where do we stand with covid? Impact on mobility, availability of funds

Scale and scope are required in the

transitions to rapid changes 1)Greendeal,

2)Digital transition 3)Health issues

How can we be concrete with key partners and at

the same time open/respecting each

other competitive advangates

Solution ofmultiple Geometry, example SEA-

JFS (Joint Funding Scheme)

Promoting common principles bring

projets/programs each sides

Priorities for international cooperation in Security (Inclusive and Secure Societies in Horizon Europe)

• Cyber security• Tackling global and inter-sectoral security challenges (e.g. pandemics,

earthquaqes, floods etc)• Speeding-up development in past-conflict and less developed regions and

mutual trust and relations through science diplomacy• Boosting competitiveness through positive effects of research collaboration• Promoting customs control standards and requirements • Exporting and understanding of EU’s security• Exploiting potential synergies that exist in law enforcement, integrated border

management and criminal justice systems

PRIORITIES


Risks in international cooperation


Knowledge drainage Leaking of sensitive information Weak coordination

Lack of intra-EU coordination on

international cooperation

Lack of EU institutions’ interest

to involve 3rd countries in projects

IPR issues Confidence and trust


CHARACTERISTICS

Target international cooperation based on -necessity to have EU

interest-to maximise scientific

impact and value global partnerships signed by the

EU

Anticipation of multi very specifc roadmaps with key

partners

Daily work of matching opportunities conduct of international cooperation in research and innovation
