Amendment 680 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part I – point 2 – point 2.2 – point 2.2.4 – paragraph 1
Synergies between research and innovation systems and programmes at EU, regional and national level need to be significantly strengthened. This can be achieved in particular through synergies and complementarities with other parts of Horizon Europe such as the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) and other EU programmes, notably the ESF+, including via a Seal of Excellence. To make use of the synergies between the programmes, the rules must be streamlined and simplified.

Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part I – point 3 – point 3.1 – paragraph 3
Past framework programmes have made a significant contribution towards the more efficient and effective use of national infrastructures as well as developed with the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) a coherent and strategy-led approach to policy making on pan-European research infrastructures. This strategic approach has generated clear advantages, including reducing duplication of effort with more efficient overall use of resources, as well as standardising processes and procedures. Research mobility plays an import role in strengthening the use of research infrastructures.

Amendment 732 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – paragraph 4
The EU will benefit as user and producer of technologies and industries showcasing how modern industrialised, sustainable inclusive, open and democratic society and economy can function and develop. The growing economic-environmental-social examples of the sustainable industrial economy of the future will be fostered and boosted, be they for: health and well-being for all; or resilient inclusive and secure societies; or available clean energy and mobility; or a digitised economy and society; or a transdisciplinary and creative industry; or space marine or land-based solutions; or food and nutrition solutions; sustainable use of natural resources, protection of the environment, climate protection and adaptation, all generating wealth in Europe and offering higher quality jobs. Industrial transformation will be crucial. Gender equality is a crucial factor in order to obtain sustainable economic growth. It is therefor important to integrate a gender perspective in all global challenges in particular regarding digital transformation and AI.

Amendment 758 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 1 – point 1.1 – paragraph 3
Health research and innovation research and innovation have played a significant part in this achievement but also in improving productivity and quality in the health and care industry. However, the EU continues to face novel, newly emerging or persisting challenges that are threatening its citizens and public health, the sustainability of its health care and social protection systems, as well as the competitiveness of its health and care industry. Major health challenges in the EU include: the lack of effective health promotion and disease prevention; the rise of non-communicable diseases; the spread of antimicrobial drug resistance and the emergence of infectious epidemics; increased environmental pollution; the increase of mental illness; the persistence of health inequalities among and within countries affecting disproportionally people that are disadvantaged or in vulnerable stages of life; the detection, understanding, control, prevention and mitigation of health risks in a rapidly changing social, urban and natural environment; the increasing costs for European health care systems and the progressive introduction of personalised medicine approaches and digitalisation in health and care; and the increasing pressure on the European health and care industry to remain competitive in and by developing health innovation vis-a- vis new and emerging global players. Challenges also include taking full advantage of the progressive introduction of personalised medicine approaches and of the opportunities that digitalisation in health and care provide.

Amendment 762 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 1 – point 1.1 – paragraph 4
These health challenges are complex, interlinked and global in nature and require multidisciplinary, cross-sectorial and transnational collaborations. Research and innovation activities will build close linkages between discovery, clinical, epidemiological, ethical, environmental and socio- economic research as well as with regulatory sciences. They will harness the combined skills of academia and industry and foster their collaboration with health services, patients, policy-makers and citizens in order to leverage on public funding and ensure the uptake of results in clinical practice as well as in health care systems. They will foster strategic collaboration at EU and international level in order to pool the expertise, capacities and resources needed to create economies of scale, scope and speed as well as to share the expected benefits and financial risks involved.

Health technologies and tools are vital for public health and contributed to a large extent to the important improvements achieved in the quality of life, health and care of people, in the EU. It is thus a key strategic challenge to design, develop, deliver and implement suitable, trustable, safe, and cost-effective tools and technologies for health and care, taking due account of the needs of people with disabilities and the aging society. These include artificial intelligence, robotics and other digital technologies, offering significant improvements over existing ones, as well as stimulating a competitive and sustainable health-related industry that creates high-value jobs. The European health-related industry is one of the critical economic sectors in the EU, accounting for 3% of GDP and 1.5 million employees.

Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 4 – point 4.2 – point 4.2.5 – paragraph 1
It is estimated that by 2050, more than 80% of the EU's population will live in urban areas, consuming the lion's share of available resources, including energy, and being areas particularly vulnerable to the adverse meteorological change impacts worsen by climate change and natural disasters already now and increasingly in the future. A key challenge is to significantly increase the overall energy and resource efficiency as well as climate- resilience of Europe's communities and cities in a holistic fashion, targeting the building stock, energy systems, transport and mobility, climate change, as well as water, soil, air quality, waste and noise, whilst improving social inclusion, security, integration and attractiveness.

5.2.4. Sea and Ocean, Oceans and Inland Waters
2018/09/12
Committee: ITRE
Amendment 1613 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 5 – point 5.2 – point 5.2.4 – paragraph 1
Seas and ocean, oceans' and inland waters' natural capital and ecosystem services offer significant socio- economic and welfare benefits. This potential is at risk because of the severe pressure from human and natural stressors such as pollution, overfishing, climate change, sea-level rise, other water-use and extreme weather events. To prevent seas and oceans from reaching a point of no return, it is necessary to strengthen our knowledge and understanding in order to sustainably manage, protect and restore marine and coastal ecosystems and prevent marine pollution, in a context of an improved and responsible ocean governance framework. This will also include research to sustainably unlock the vast and unexploited economic potential of seas and ocean, oceans and inland waters aiming at producing more food without increasing pressures on them, as well the potential of aquaculture in all forms, and also contribute to alleviate pressure on land, freshwater and ocean resources. There is a need for partnering approaches, including sea basin and macro- regional strategies, extending beyond the EU (e.g. in the Mediterranean, the Baltic, the Black Sea, the Atlantic, the Caribbean Sea and in the Indian Ocean); and for contributing to International Ocean Governance commitments, initiatives like the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development and commitments linked to the conservation of marine biological diversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction.
