The Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) is a central document for the future European Partnership for Pandemic Preparedness. It aims to define the thematic priorities and strategic objectives of the Partnership, and to be a guiding document for the European research ecosystem. By analysing existing gaps in research programs and structural deficits, describing approaches to address them, and carefully describing priorities for action and stakeholders to be involved, the SRIA will contribute to a Europe that is better prepared for pandemics.

Taken into account inputs from recognised experts in a wide range of disciplines from European Member States and institutions and stakeholders involved in pandemic preparedness at regional, national, European and international level, the partners of the CSA BE READY have developed a first version of the SRIA, which is now published.
