The AU-EU Innovation Agenda is an ambitious unprecedented initiative aiming to translate Research & Innovation endeavours into tangible businesses, services and jobs, in Africa and Europe. The Agenda foresees short-, medium- and long-term actions in the four joint AU-EU priority areas of Research & Innovation, namely (i) Public Health, (ii) Green Transition (encompassing Food and Nutrition Security and
Sustainable Agriculture, Climate Change and Sustainable Energy); (iii) Innovation & Technology and (iv) Capacities for Science. A copy of the working document of the Innovation Agenda in English, French (soon in Portuguese and Arabic) is accessible right on the online survey page (after the Introductory Paragraph). https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/IAPublicConsultation
RUFORUM is partnering with colleagues at the DG Research & Innovation to host a Webinar as they share information on the Agenda and to boost appreciation from the member universities and other stakeholders. Well noting that AU-EU Innovation Agenda has implication for academia and research as core functions of the university.
