MIRRIS Europe

The main objective of Mobilising Institutional Reforms in Research and Innovation Systems (MIRRIS) is encourage a better exploitation of European research and innovation programmes and participation in the European Research Area of the 12 target countries by setting up a process of analysis, dialogue, mutual learning among key concerned stakeholders, namely research, innovation and institutional actors.

As MIRRIS position, Europe as a whole must advance significantly in research and innovation performances in order to make the EU the most dynamic and competitive knowledge-based economy, as foreseen in the Europe 2020 strategy. There are countries legging behind in the effectiveness of exploiting EU funded programs in the field of R&D&I. The obstacles can be sought among local conditions, resources and assets faceting a specific system.

The project foresees the organization of 3 rounds of policy dialogues in each country involving relevant stakeholders from three levels: decision makers, implementation institutions and operational structures. Through sharing, discussing and enriching findings among relevant stakeholders, policy recommendations for institutional reform and uptake will be shaped and actions for the implementation validated for a successful uptake.
