Description du projet
Stimuler la recherche et l’innovation dans le domaine de la santé
La recherche et l’innovation (R&I) jouent un rôle de premier plan à l’heure de relever les défis sociétaux de l’Europe, y compris pour assurer la santé et le bien-être des citoyens. Malgré des investissements considérables, il existe encore des différences entre les pays en ce qui concerne les performances de R&I. Dans le secteur de la santé, le fossé en matière de R&I peut affecter profondément la qualité de la santé et de la vie des citoyens européens. Surfant sur le succès d’Alliance4Life, le projet A4L_ACTIONS, financé par l’UE, vise à combler le fossé en matière de R&I dans la santé en améliorant la culture, la gouvernance, la reconnaissance et le potentiel d’innovation des organismes de recherche dans le domaine de la santé dans les pays d’Europe centrale et orientale à faible performance. Ces actions contribueront à accroître l’attractivité de ces pays et à ouvrir la voie à des collaborations avec les pays européens avancés.
Objectif
The gap in Research and Innovation (R&I) performance, which persists despite considerable investments from the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) in the lower-performing regions of the EU, is an issue with major socio-economic and political consequences. In Health R&I the gap has a profound impact on distribution of funding from the EU Framework Programmes as well as on hindering the EU-wide impact of R&I on health and quality of life.
With A4L_ACTIONS, we aim to address roots of this situation in the lower-performing Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) by improving culture, governance, recognition and innovation potential of the health research-performing institutions. Our goal is to increase their attractiveness for collaborations with advanced Europe and create spill-over effects in the whole region. As the Alliance4Life, we are an established network of progressive health research institutions in CEE and a source of successfully piloted good practice. By building upon our results and impact achieved so far, we will convert our recommendations and strategies into actions as follows:
- Culture fostering excellence: piloting peer-evaluation and assessment of institutional practice as a strategic management tool, professionalizing research administration;
- Recognition and trust towards CEE: attracting advanced partners to identified pockets of excellence, supporting scientific ideas originating in CEE, initiating new international projects and collaborations with industry;
- Career policy nurturing talent: training and networking next generation of leaders, upgrading institutional career systems;
- Impact on innovation: raising the competences of Technology Transfer specialists, creating industry relations platform linking academia and industry;
- Spill-over effects: sharing, inspiring, communicating with stakeholders and policy makers; using the established networks to gain advice, new collaborations and EU-wide impact.
