Summary of the JRC-EASME joint technical workshop, 3rd December 2020
European projects, such as Horizon 2020 projects and EIT-KIC projects, are among the most important knowledge providers to the Raw Materials Information System (RMIS). Through the RMIS, the EC DG JRC supports mapping, structuring and making further sense of this knowledge, so that raw materials knowledge needs identified by EU policy, can be met rapidly and systematically; ensuring coordination, coherence, and quality-assurance as well as verification as far as needed and through additional products that build-on, and combine these projects’ outputs. In support of this process, in 2018 the EC made it mandatory for certain Horizon 2020 projects ( ) to contribute to the further development of the RMIS. Knowledge flows from EU funded projects to the RMIS are expected to become increasingly important in the context of the forthcoming Horizon Europe – the next R&I framework programme.
Held virtually on December 3rd and co-organised by DG JRC and EASME, the 2020 RMIS workshop continues the well-established dialogue between the DG JRC with the EU-funded project consortia in relation to the RMIS. The overarching aim of the workshop was to facilitate a technical dialogue that can support efficient knowledge transfers from EU projects (H2020 + EIT RM) into RMIS, and make sure that project’s outputs best contribute to RMIS & EU policy objectives.
The workshop gathered nearly 80 participants, including Directors from JRC, EASME, DG GROW, DG RTD and EIT Raw Materials. It saw the active contribution from about 20 EU funded projects on raw materials.
