The European University Association (EUA), the Guild, Aurora Universities, Coimbra Group and YERUN – Young European Research Universities published a joint statement stressing that the Council recommendations should only be a first step. 

They are calling for:

  • Appropriate legislative changes at national and regional levels
  • Researchers’ expertise and transversal skills need to be widely recognised in other sectors
  • More stable and predictable research careers
  • The future Research and Innovation Careers Observatory (ReICO) should be open and transparent
