The DEEP poster was presented at the event entitled “Building Together Knowledge-oriented and Forward-looking EU Neighbourhood – Developing a Common Knowledge & Innovation Space”, that has been held on 31st March, 2015 in the European Parliament.
The event was jointly organised by the European Commission (DG R&I) and the European Parliament`s Foreign Affairs (AFET) and the Industry, Technology, Research and Energy (ITRE) committees and was aimed to illustrate the potential and results of the EU-ENP cooperation in research and innovation towards the achievement of a Common Knowledge and Innovation Space between the EU and its Neighbours (both under FP7 and the recently launched Horizon 2020) as well as to identify future prospects for cooperation in this field, including foster the strong involvement of the ENP countries in Horizon 2020.
The inclusion of three EU Neighbourhood countries in the project (Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia) successfully embodies the recent challenge of the European cooperation with the Mediterranean area that has to be faced through the promotion of joint research projects in the health field in order to promote the development and the Mediterranean integrity.
