        Commission launches two calls for evidence on the future Ocean
        and Water Research and Innovation Strategy

Today, the European Commission has launched two calls for evidence to 
help shape the future Ocean and Water Research and Innovation (R&I) 
Strategy. This key follow-up initiative is expected to be adopted by the 
end of 2026. The strategy aims to strengthen Europe’s capacity in ocean 
and water research and innovation by addressing persistent challenges 
such as fragmented coordination across EU, national and regional levels, 
and barriers to bringing innovations to market.

*Ekaterina Zaharieva*, European Commissioner for Startups, Research, and 
Innovation, said:

    “The ocean and water are central to Europe’s sustainability,
    competitiveness and security. Through the future European Ocean and
    Water Research and Innovation Strategy, we want to transform
    cutting-edge science into practical solutions that protect
    ecosystems, strengthen resilience and support a competitive blue and
    water-smart economy.We invite researchers, innovators, policymakers
    and stakeholders to help shape Europe’s future priorities in ocean
    and water research and innovation. By investing in innovation and
    accelerating the uptake of solutions, Europe can reinforce its
    global leadership while building a more resilient and sustainable
    future for all.”
