President @vonderleyen has announced an increase of almost €100 million in EU support for ocean observation. #HorizonEU is helping turn this ambition into action: backing the science we need to predict climate impacts, protect marine ecosystems and support coastal communities.

Our Ocean changes rapidly. And it impacts our planet, our economies, and our communities. Today, @MarkJCarney and I are rallying the world in support of ocean observation. Which gives us eyes and ears beneath the waves ↓ nitter.net/i/broadcasts/1qxvvepjZ…

The ocean doesn’t stop at borders. Neither should ocean observation. Sharing science and knowledge globally helps us better understand our ocean. Under the EU and Canada leadership, the OceanEye International Alliance for the Global Ocean Observing System join forces. #UNGA81

Good news for Hungarian students and researchers! 🇪🇺🔬 Today, the Commission proposed lifting the measures affecting access to Erasmus+ and Horizon Europe. When reforms deliver results, opportunities reopen. link.europa.eu/YTp6cp
Hungary has taken important steps to strengthen the rule of law and protect the Union’s financial interests. And reforms deliver results. Today, we are proposing to unlock €4.2 billion and reopen the doors of Erasmus+ and Horizon Europe to Hungarian students and researchers. I am very glad that they will once again fully benefit from the opportunities our Union creates. link.europa.eu/YTp6cp

Europe and Australia see the world in the same way. And this joint vision translates into concrete actions. Our Security & Defence partnership is fully at work. Our Free Trade Agreement: about to be signed next year. As of January, Australian researchers will be able to take part in Horizon Europe. And we are both taking strong action to protect young people online. This shows the strength of the 🇪🇺🇦🇺 partnership. Our joint press release: link.europa.eu/v7GKGC

Grateful for the fruitful meeting with the International Federation of Library Associations, LIBER, SPARC Europe and COMMUNIA. Libraries are important knowledge infrastructures and we value their input for the ERA Act and their commitment to open science.
