Joint JPI Climate / CELAC community Strategic Workshop

“Promoting and implementing joint programming to reinforce transnational research on Climate Change within the framework of the bi-regional cooperation EU-CELAC”

Cooperation in Science, Technology and Innovation between the European Union (EU) and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) is strong at numerous levels.

Implemented under the auspices of the European Commission, the SINCERE initiative seeks to widen international Climate Change research cooperation activities on climate adaptation and mitigation, building on and further developing on-going efforts. Indeed, SINCERE recognises and addresses the need for internationalising innovative, relevant and informative Climate Change research. It does so by promoting a structured dialogue on ways to enhance research collaboration, with a view to increasing the visibility and impact of climate science.

Today, the SINCERE initiative embarks on the critical task of developing a strategic cooperation agenda at the crossroad of the priorities identified between EU and CELAC, and to set a long-term strategic cooperation agenda. Within this framework, this Joint Strategic Workshop will serve to update the shared priorities and go a step further, identifying common needs in the area and activities that could be implemented to fill these needs.
