Azores lead Work-Group of European Network NEREUS


The Regional Government of the Azores, through the Regional Secretariat for Science, Technology and Infrastructure, is presently leading the Earth Observatorium/Oceanography Work-Group (GMES/EO). This work-group was established with the intent of ensuring that  European regions play an important role in the elaboration and development of European space programmes.

The Azores Regional Government, as it takes on the leadership of this work-group, aims to promote and ensure co-operation between the regions of EU member states
in the development of common projects in this domain as well as providing assistance to the users of EU space programmes services.

The participation of the Azores in this network can also imply the creation of jobs. Applications can be submitted, until Thursday, for the position of Secretarial Assistant of the project, in Brussels.

To obtain more information about this employment opportunity that is available to applicants from the Azores, prospective applicants should consult the web-site of the of the Regional Directorate for Science, Technology and Communications (www.sctridi.azores.gov.pt).

The NEREUS network and the regions that partake in it aim to influence European and national political debates and programmes regarding the development, exploration and application of space technologies. They also seek to  promote regional co-ordination and co-operation in policy-making, strategy-formulation and institutional exchanges with European institutions on matters pertaining to national and European space exploration programmes.

The establishment of NEREUS opens new perspectives for European regions, not only in the field of research and development (R&D) but also on matters related to territorial organisation and management of environmental resources, providing new employment opportunities and new services that address the needs of citizens.

The space programmes of the European Union, GMES ( environmental protection satellite monitoring programme); GALILEO (European satellite navigation system) are strategically important for the regions;namely, with regard to the application of information obtained as well as the technological development and maintenance of space-exploration infrastructures.
