By choosing the motto &#8216;Recovery, Strength and a Sense of Belonging&#8217;, France conveys its hope to unite EU citizens and to strengthen Europe\u2019s global response to current challenges.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The French Presidency has identified three strategic priorities to guide its six-month programme for higher education, research, and innovation:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>to stimulate cooperation between higher education, research, innovation, and services to society by promoting an EU knowledge policy;<\/li>\n<li>to shape the international dimension of European higher education, research, and innovation policies, to offer appealing academic career opportunities in the EU and to set up major European university campuses;<\/li>\n<li>to nurture a sense of belonging in Europe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If there is one key word that could define the French 6-month strategy for R&amp;I, it would be &#8216;cooperation&#8217;. France takes a broad view by aiming to increase and improve scientific cooperation not only within the EU, but also internationally. As a reaction to some significant 2021 drawbacks for EU\u2019s openness to science cooperation \u2013 Switzerland was denied access to Horizon Europe and the UK&#8217;s participation as an associated country is yet to be announced \u2013 France expressed its ambition to promote balanced R&amp;I cooperation with non-EU countries. One of the main events of the Presidency will be the \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/presidence-francaise.consilium.europa.eu\/en\/events\/conference-on-international-cooperation-for-a-global-europe-in-the-field-of-research-higher-education-and-innovation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Conference on International Cooperation for a Global Europe in the Field of Research, Higher Education and Innovation<\/a>\u2019 in Marseille on 8 and 9 March 2022.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, France presented an ambitious model for economic growth, based on technology sovereignty.

The implementation of various European and national instruments at the regional and territorial level will also be addressed during this conference.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Horizon Europe remains a high priority on France&#8217;s agenda as the Presidency will ensure the success of its missions by coordinating them at European, national, and local levels.
