Recommendations on European e-Infrastructures for Research and Education

The European e-Infrastructures are dedicated to accommodating a digital ecosystem that supports the success of European students, educators, and researchers through innovative solutions and tailored support. e-Infrastructures coordinate access at pan-European level and provide a coordinated response to the most demanding needs of European communities with the ultimate goal of boosting excellence within the European knowledge and science economy. The e-Infrastructures are designed to overcome geographical barriers and offer a streamlined, effective framework for interoperability and collaborative efforts leveraging the investments and effort of funding agencies at local, national and regional level. This framework empowers not only individual users and public entities but also IT service-providing companies to work together harmoniously, guided by robust standards that ensure compatibility, deliver trust and address security in the field of research and education.

As we navigate through an era marked by constant evolution and challenges, in this document the e-Infrastructure Reflection Group (e-IRG) highlights the significance of the European e-Infrastructures in this dynamic landscape.
