Horizon Europe: Governing Missions in the European Union
This report, Governing Missions in the European Union, looks at the ‘how’: how to implement and govern a mission-oriented process so that it unleashes the full creativity and ambition potential of R&I policy-making; and how it crowds-in investments from across Europe in the process. The focus is on three key questions:
- How to engage citizens in co-designing, co-creating, co-implementing and coassessing missions?
- What are the public sector capabilities and instruments needed to foster a dynamic innovation eco-system, including the ability of civil servants to welcome experimentation and help governments work outside silos?
- How can mission-oriented finance and funding leverage and crowd-in other forms of finance, galvanising innovation across actors (public, private and third sector), different manufacturing and service sectors, and across national and transnational levels?
