AERO-UA Advisory Board’s recommendations for long-term EU-UA cooperation in aeronautics

​22.07.2019
 
Led by Chairperson Jean-Pierre Barthélemy, the AERO-UA Advisory Board recommend the following seven high-level actions to further strengthen long-term cooperation between Europe and Ukraine in aeronautics beyond the life of the AERO-UA project:
 
Action 1: Formalize Ukrainian advanced research in the field of aeronautics and produce a long-term strategic roadmap “Ukrainian Strategic Research Agenda in Aviation up to 2050” similar to the ACARE Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda.
Responsible: Ukrainian aeronautic research community – led by the National Academy of Sciences – to shape the roadmap with the support of the Ukrainian Government.
 
Action 2: Establish and implement a “Ukrainian Future Aviation” research funding programme as a Ukrainian counterpart to the EU’s Clean Sky programme.
Responsible: Ukrainian aeronautic industry to lead the programme implementation and the Ukrainian government to co-finance the programme.
 
Action 3: Identify EU-UA technology gaps and technology domains in which win-win partnerships can be established between the EU and Ukraine (e.g. freight transport of the future) and initiate a dialogue on strategic cooperation in these areas.
Responsible: Mechatronics Cluster, UkrRIAT. EU counterpart: ASD.
 
Action 4: Identify future potential “pilot projects” between the EU and Ukraine with a focus on priorities in Clean Sky 2 and Horizon Europe to be further converted into full-scale projects.
Responsible: Pro-active Ukrainian and European research entities and communities.
 
Action 5: Restore links with the East Europe aeronautic industry (including Poland, Czech Republic and Romania) and establish long-term collaborations.
Responsible: Ukrainian aeronautics industry with the support of the Mechatronics Cluster and European national aerospace clusters.
 
Action 6: Formalize connections and links between Ukrainian and European research laboratories via the Association of European Research Establishments in Aeronautics (EREA). Establish a Ukrainian focal point in the International Forum for Aviation Research (IFAR).
Responsible: National Academy of Science to identify and designate high-professional volunteers from the Ukrainian aeronautic research community.
 
Action 7: Increase Ukrainian representation in key European aeronautics-oriented bodies, committees and associations (e.g. ACARE, Clean Sky, etc) in order to support long-term understanding and collaboration.
Responsible: Ukrainian Government to provide sufficient and stable financial support.
