Activities

Bi-annual meetings

ENERO member representatives meet twice a year to exchange views on the European research agenda in the broader environmental field and the role of RTOs therein.

Working groups on environmental topics

ENERO members discuss how they can collaborate better on certain focused environmental subjects (e.g. building materials, open data, environmental effects of nanomaterials, …). This often leads to joined research proposals (e.g. in EU Horizon 2020).

Travel grants for RTO junior researchers

One of the key issues of ENERO is to promote interaction and exchange of young scientists within the member RTOs. The ‘ENERO fellowship arrangement'  provides funding for travelling and accommodation for a young RTO scientist during a visit of 2 to 4 weeks to another member of the ENERO network.
