- removing obstacles to mobility and cross-border co-operation through a common approach including on the following topics: quality of doctoral training, attractive employment conditions and gender balance in research careers, mobility across countries and sectors, open recruitment in public research institutions, comparable research career structures and the creation of European supplementary pension funds;
- ensuring that leading academics, researchers and innovators reside and work in Europe and attracting a sufficient number of highly skilled third country nationals to stay in Europe.
