Improved coordination of national and European bioeconomy research and innovation programmes in the ERA through strengthened SCAR Working Groups

Descripción del proyecto

Apoyo a la investigación agrícola

El Comité Permanente de Investigación Agrícola (CPIA, o SCAR por sus siglas en inglés) es un órgano de coordinación y asesoramiento en materia de investigación europea sobre agricultura y bioeconomía. En estas funciones estratégicas cuenta con el apoyo de los grupos de trabajo del CPIA, entre ellos el Grupo de Prospectiva, que proporciona asesoramiento y aportaciones de expertos en ámbitos específicos. El proyecto RefreSCAR, financiado con fondos europeos, reforzará el funcionamiento estratégico y las capacidades de esos grupos para mejorar la coordinación entre los programas de investigación e innovación (I+i). Para ello, el equipo desarrollará un conjunto de medidas y proporcionará un sólido apoyo científico, así como ayuda administrativa práctica, para facilitar una organización mejor estructurada. Además, impulsarán la participación de los países infrarrepresentados, sumergirán a un público más amplio de interesados en las actividades de los grupos y ayudarán a tender un puente entre la I+i, la política y la práctica.

Objetivo

The Standing Committee on Agricultural Research (SCAR) is a long-standing committee of EU Member States and Associated Countries presided over by the European Commission. It has become a respected source of advice on European agricultural and wider bioeconomy research and has been a catalyst for the coordination of national research and innovation (R&I) programmes. It is supported in these strategic functions by SCAR Working Groups (WGs), including a Foresight Group, which provide domain-specific expert advice and input. RefreSCAR will strengthen the strategic functioning and capacities of SCAR WGs in order to facilitate the improved coordination of national and European bioeconomy R&I programmes. Through a toolkit of measures, RefreSCAR will provide robust scientific support to SCAR WGs through regular portfolio analysis of projects, expert studies and support for the SCAR Foresight process. Combined with practical administrative support, this will enable a better structured organisation, facilitation and reporting of SCAR WG activities in themes of relevance for Horizon Europe, the Common Agricultural Policy, European Green Deal, Digital Europe and the Farm to Fork and Biodiversity Strategies. In order to boost the participation of under-represented countries in SCAR WGs, a SCAR-Engage Programme will be developed involving tailored action plans, financial and peer-to-peer support, networking and knowledge exchange. Targeted support for communication and dissemination will immerse a broad audience of stakeholders in the activities of the WGs. Furthermore, RefreSCAR will cultivate connections between SCAR WGs, key actors in EU policy, practitioners and relevant EU and international initiatives through dedicated fora, helping to build a bridge between R&I, policy and practice. The outcome will be more impactful SCAR WGs that are better resourced and empowered to deliver strategic advice, contributing to a strengthened SCAR within the European Research Area.
