RRF Report Release: Insights into Sustainable Growth (RRF 2022-2024)

Welcome to the Publication Event! 

The Research Council of Finland invites you to an online event where we will publish a report on the impacts of the EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) programme on sustainable growth. The report summarizes the results of research and research infrastructure projects funded between 2022 and 2024, as well as their effects on the conditions for systemic change. 

During the event, the authors of the report will present the key findings and results. The event also offers an opportunity for discussion and questions. It is intended for researchers involved in the RRF programme, RRF funding authorities, and anyone interested in the topic.
