European Research and Innovation Days is the European Commission’s annual flagship event, bringing together policymakers, researchers, entrepreneurs and citizens to debate and shape the future of research and innovation in Europe and beyond.

With European societies gradually lifting their lockdowns and recovery plans taking shape, this is a great chance to ensure that the transition to a post-corona society is sustainable, inclusive and resilient.

To foster opportunities for cooperation in the Horizon 2020 Green Deal Call, Net4Society organises a Virtual Brokerage event, focused on topics relevant for researchers from the Social Sciences and Humanities.

This conference is an official event of Germany’s 2020 EU Council presidency. The conference will present, evaluate and discuss the exciting contributions that citizen science makes in framing and achieving sustainable development, specifically the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The conference will bring together expertise from policy makers, institutional and citizen scientists, economists, NGOs and civil society to implement mechanisms and processes for the transition towards a more sustainable future.

What are the current challenges for democracies in Europe and what is the role of research in addressing them? This is the overall topic of the German EU council presidency conference “Revitalising Democracy in Times of Division – The Role of Social Sciences and Humanities” that will take place on 28 and 29 October 2020 in Bonn.
