EUPHRESCO III - Partners
Organizations
EUPHRESCO III is an international collaboration bringing together a diverse consortium of 35 partners covering the different world regions.

The EUPHRESCO III partners operate in the plant health field and have different missions and mandates: research programme owners, research programme managers, policy makers, regulators and research providers from the public and private sector. The diversity of missions and mandates of the EUPHRESCO III partners allows to secure all operations: identification of research priorities, project commissioning and funding, project implementation and use of the project outputs. Selected organizations play the role of champions within EUPHRESCO III, i.e. they coordinate the efforts within a region of the world or within a discipline.

Benefits and added value from research coordination and collaboration
Research funders
- Collaboration creates a more diverse and critical mass of expertise to deliver more output compared to separate small projects.
- Transnational collaboration enables the efficient use of national research funds and personnel resources by pooling them.
- Collaboration gives access to information from national phytosanitary research programmes.
- Coordination finds synergies and complementarities among research programmes and avoids duplication.
- Coordination enables faster funding and commissioning of transnational work.
Regulators
- Collaboration links the challenges faced by countries to the problem-solving capabilities of research organisations.
- Collaboration allows research on pests in areas where they already occur, rather than in expensive quarantine facilities.
- Collaboration builds mutual trust and confidence and contributes to a wider adoption of standards. programmes.
- Coordination supports the sharing of information on national research in areas facing similar phytosanitary risks and problems.
- Coordination gives the opportunity to shape research agendas across countries.
Research organisations
- Collaboration enables sharing of knowledge and infrastructures and development of expertise.
- Collaboration strengthens the links between different players and favours multi-disciplinary approaches.
- Collaboration increases the visibility of research activities and use/re-use by the various stakeholders.
- Collaboration produces more and higher quality outputs from joint transnational projects than partners could achieve on their own.
