ACCESS2ACCESS

ACCESS2ACCESS lays the foundations for a future European access framework enabling world-class research through open, integrated and sustainable use of Research Infrastructures (RIs). It unites leading RIs across domains to address a core need: making access discoverable, inclusive, fair, efficient, scalable and adaptable, while aligning with the European Research Areas priorities, the European Charter for Access to RIs and the next MFF/FP10. The project directly supports the European Strategy on Research and Technology Infrastructures (2025), which calls for integrated “one-stop” access, AI-assisted navigation, simplified and sustainable funding models, and stronger EU–national coherence across infrastructures.

Combining evidence-gathering, stakeholder co-creation, policy and governance modelling, concept prototyping and a multi-layered engagement structure—Executive Team, Supporting and Consultation Network, Advisory Board—along with dissemination, clustering and early policy engagement will ensure visibility, uptake and long-term impact.
