Fourteen Italian voices within the Horizon 2020 Committee

Pubblicato il 02/08/2013Read time: 1 min

The Italian Minister for Education, University and Research, Maria Chiara Carrozza, appointed the national representatives for the Horizon 2020 Committee, with the aim of preparing our country to the new Framework Programme for European Research (2014-2020).

According to the Minister, an active and continuous presence of our representatives is necessary to get a quote of the funding that, at least, equals the Italian budgetary contribute to the Programme – something that did not happen in the FP7. Also, the whole national systems of research, innovation and of course politics have to offer their support. The Minister for Education, University and Research will be on the frontline in Bruxelles, to highlight the role of country with such a remarkable scientific and industrial tradition as Italy.

The fourteen Italian members of the Committee (seven men and seven women) are thus called to represent Italy in Europe, within their specific fields of expertise.

On the upcoming July 12, the European Parliament will decide the fate of one of the most ambitious initiatives in support of European nature, the Nature Restoration Law, a legislative proposal aimed at restoring European natural habitats. Now more than ever, it is crucial to defend this law and push for its approval.

In Italy, the Manifesto for the Nature Restoration Law has been published, an initiative that has so far received the support of over 150 associations, 4,000 scientists, dozens of large companies, and over one million signatures from individual citizens (here is the registration form).

Making the protection of nature and the restoration of habitats a legal obligation: this is the purpose of the new European regulation proposal, the Nature Restoration Law. An ambitious proposal, but crucial for making the European Green Deal something concrete.
