The FOCAL project aims to advance our understanding of complex Earth systems and mitigate climate change impacts through five main objectives: developing a high-performance computing platform for better climate and earth system modelling; creating AI modules for efficient climate data exploration; designing web-apps to support decision-making; conducting pilot studies to address assessment challenges and demonstrate app benefits; and fostering a collaborative network across research, data providers, data science, and HPC infrastructure. By combining expertise and integrating data from multiple sources, FOCAL aims to improve climate models, inform policy decisions, and support sustainable development.

2024 - 2026

The aim of the project is to enhance technology transfer (TT) and technology uptake in the field of digital technologies across the Danube region. The focus is on higher educational institutions (HEIs), public research organisations (PROs) and EEN/EDIHs members. It builds on good practices from participating countries and develops concrete instruments for management of these organisations. It also creates tools to strengthen cross-border cooperation in the field of TT.

2024 - 2027

The project deals with streamlining the work with FAIR data in research - their planning (plan), monitoring (track) and evaluation (assess). It is primarily about introducing interoperability between existing DMP creation tools, SKG-type services and evaluation tools. Likewise, other supporting tools related to research data management will be incorporated. The results of the project will be verified by a number of pilots across Europe.
