European Union (UN) Missions are a new way to bring concrete solutions to some of our greatest challenges. They have ambitious goals and will deliver concrete results by 2030.

EU Missions are a coordinated effort by the European Commission to pool the necessary resources in terms of policies and regulations, as well as other activities. They also aim to mobilize and activate public and private actors, such as EU Member States, regional and local authorities, research institutes, farmers and land managers, entrepreneurs and investors to create real and lasting impact. Missions engage with citizens to boost societal uptake of new solutions and approaches.

They support Europe’s transformation into a greener, healthier, more inclusive and resilient continent.

Each mission operates as a portfolio of actions — such as research projects, policy measures or even legislative initiatives — to achieve a measurable goal that could not be achieved through individual actions.
