Abstract (english)
This study reviews the current and future policy relevance of the five mission areas by assessing the research and innovation (R&I), economic, social and environmental trends influencing each area. The ‘societal relevance’ of each of the five mission areas is not contested as they all address complex challenges facing the EU that require action on the part of governments, businesses, education and research institutions and civil society. The mission areas are, to a greater or less extent, interlinked and the review underlines the systemic nature of the challenges and the need for concerted action to optimise synergies in implementing missions. The need for sustained R&I investment is evident for all five areas with differences in the extent to which weight is given to more ‘research’ (new discoveries) to more ‘innovation’ (implementation of existing or novel solutions). The scope of each area is sufficiently broad to stand the test of time to the 2030 horizon addressed by each respective mission. The review proposes three recommendations for the way in which mission areas should be defined and selected and their continuing relevance monitored.
