On 9 October, ERAC met for a plenary meeting in Malaga, hosted by the Spanish Presidency of the Council. One agenda item focused on the timeline towards the adoption of the next ERA Policy Agenda, now envisaged for early 2025, as well as the integration of a policy narrative to better link the ERA Policy Agenda with the priorities set out in the Pact for R&I. The second topic for discussion was the possible role of ERAC and ERA policy in tackling challenges related to the twin transitions. ERAC delegates suggested to share best practices and to consider respective measures within the ERA Policy Agenda (currently Action 12).
