Underpinned by a <a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/eiroforum-ec-statement-of-intent.pdf">Statement of Intent</a>, signed by the Directors General of the partner organisations and the European Commissioner for Research and Innovation in 2010, the cooperation is practical in nature, focussing on exchange of information and joint actions in areas such as mobility and human resources, public awareness of science and technology transfer. In May 2016, the Director General Assembly of the partner organisations adopted another Statement of Intent, detailing a Work Plan for its implementation throughout 2016 and 2017.</p> <p>While the EIROforum organisations fully support the construction of the European Research Area (ERA), the partners also recognise the need for an ERA that is open to the wider world. Indeed, the partners entertain close links and conduct activities with a multitude of partners across the entire world.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <div class="entry-meta"> </div> </footer> </article> </main> </div> </div> <footer id="site-footer" class="site-footer footer-layout-1" role="contentinfo"> <div class="container"> <div class="footer-widget-container columns-3"> <section id="footer-1" class="widget-area footer-1 active" role="complementary"> <aside id="nav_menu-2" class="widget widget_nav_menu"><h4 class="widget-title">EIROforum members</h4><div class="menu-partner-links-container"><ul id="menu-partner-links" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-24" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-24"><a href="http://home.cern/">CERN</a></li> <li id="menu-item-26" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-26"><a href="http://www.embl.org/">EMBL</a></li> <li id="menu-item-27" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-27"><a href="http://www.esa.int/">ESA</a></li> <li id="menu-item-28" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-28"><a href="http://www.eso.org/public/">ESO</a></li> <li id="menu-item-29" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-29"><a href="http://www.esrf.eu/">ESRF</a></li> <li id="menu-item-25" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-25"><a href="https://www.euro-fusion.org/">EUROfusion</a></li> <li id="menu-item-30" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-30"><a href="http://www.xfel.eu/">European XFEL</a></li> <li id="menu-item-31" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-31"><a href="https://www.ill.eu/">ILL</a></li> </ul></div></aside></section><section id="footer-2" class="widget-area footer-2 active" role="complementary"> <aside id="nav_menu-5" class="widget widget_nav_menu"><h4 class="widget-title">Legal notes</h4><div class="menu-legal-notes-container"><ul id="menu-legal-notes" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-10496" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-10496"><a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/imprint-data-privacy/">Imprint and data privacy</a></li> </ul></div></aside></section><section id="footer-3" class="widget-area footer-3 active" role="complementary"> <aside id="nav_menu-6" class="widget widget_nav_menu"><h4 class="widget-title">Misc</h4><div class="menu-metanavigation-container"><ul id="menu-metanavigation" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-34625" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-34625"><a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/jobs/">Jobs</a></li> <li id="menu-item-12734" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-12734"><a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/business/">Business</a></li> <li id="menu-item-47" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-47"><a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/about-eiroforum/contact/">Contact</a></li> <li id="menu-item-40865" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-40865"><a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/media/press-contacts/">Press contacts</a></li> <li id="menu-item-48" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-48"><a href="https://cm01.embl.de/share/">Intranet (login required)</a></li> </ul></div></aside></section> </div> <div class="footer-text"> 漏 2024 EIROforum</div> <div class="footer-social-links"> <ul class="social-customizer social-links"> <li class="make-social-icon"> <a href="https://www.eiroforum.org/feed/" target="_blank"> <i class="fa fa-fw fa-rss" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="screen-reader-text">RSS</span> </a> </li> <li class="make-social-icon"> <a href="https://twitter.com/EIROforum" target="_blank"> <i class="fa-brands fa-x-twitter" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="screen-reader-text">Twitter</span> </a> </li> <li class="make-social-icon"> <a href="mailto:info@eiroforum.org"> <i class="fa fa-fw fa-envelope" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="screen-reader-text">Email</span> </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </footer>  </div> <script> ( function ( body ) { 'use strict'; body.className = body.className.replace( /\btribe-no-js\b/, 'tribe-js' ); } )( document.body ); </script> <script> /* <![CDATA[ */var tribe_l10n_datatables = {"aria":{"sort_ascending":": activate to sort column ascending","sort_descending":": activate to sort column descending"},"length_menu":"Show _MENU_ entries","empty_table":"No data available in table","info":"Showing _START_ to _END_ of _TOTAL_ entries","info_empty":"Showing 0 to 0 of 0 entries","info_filtered":"(filtered from _MAX_ total entries)","zero_records":"No matching records found","search":"Search:","all_selected_text":"All items on this page were selected.
