JPIs - Joint Programming Initiatives

European national research programmes are among the best in the world, but in order to make better use of research and development resources and tackle common European challenges more effectively the JPIs (Joint Programming Initiatives) were created.

Joing Programming Initiatives are developed in a structured and strategic process where EU countries agree on a voluntary basis on common visions and Strategic Research Agendas (SRA) to address major societal challenges.

These challenges include:

addressing climate change
ensuring energy and food supply
healthy ageing of citizens

The aim of the joint programming process is to pool national research efforts and tackle common European challenges more effectively.
