What has been discussed here reflects a convergence of several points that allows us to make this declaration quite harmonious,<\/em>&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, the Minister of Science, Technology and Higher Education of Portugal, Manuel Heitor, said that understanding is a new stage in a process that began 15 months ago with the Declaration of Bel\u00e9m and that the project is open to new partners to take concrete steps and so many participants have come together in this meeting to sign this important document.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Brazil and Portugal, the memorandum was signed by Angola, Cape Verde, Spain, Niger, Uruguay and the Autonomous Region of the Azores. The next high-level meeting on the AIR Centre is scheduled for May next year in Cape Verde. The signatories of the memorandum of understanding agreed to form and appoint representatives to a steering committee, which will address issues such as governance of the centres and sources of funding.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-19734 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/spain.climate-kic.prod.twkmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2018\/10\/Firma-Jose-Luis.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Climate KIC Spain, in addition to having also signed the Florian\u00f3polis Declaration together with the Ministers of Innovation and Science and other government representatives mentioned before, had the opportunity to present Climate-KIC in one of the parallel sessions. In this speech, the Director of the Spanish Centre for Innovation in Climate Change, Jose-Luis Mu\u00f1oz explained how this European initiative based on innovation and the exchange of knowledge, uses the talent, higher education and the promotion of entrepreneurship to provide concrete solutions and services on climate action.<\/p>\n<p>At the conference, Mu\u00f1oz pointed out the role and the cooperation and collaboration model set out between the actors in these innovation and knowledge communities supported by the EIT (European Institute of Technology and Innovation. Mu\u00f1oz highlighted the experience that in Spain is leading with the creation of the EIT Cross-KIC Spain Group, different thematic communities or KICs based in Spain. This initiative has been lead by Climate KIC Spain, as a collaboration reference to replicate in other countries.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-19735 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/spain.climate-kic.prod.twkmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2018\/10\/Jose-Luis-speaking-AIR.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<p>From the two-day debate, it emerges that there is a need to create the right conditions for strengthening international knowledge-based cooperation and that the lessons learned in recent decades from international partnerships in science, technology and higher education, among many other intergovernmental scientific initiatives, have clearly demonstrated that the future can only be built on the basis of an exchange of knowledge, skills and solid ideas.<\/p>\n<p>A new paradigm of structured international research relations is emerging, a new era of government and industrial intervention associated with scientific knowledge, opening the frontiers of interdisciplinary research. In this context, the discussion focused on the possible establishment of an International Research Centre for the Atlantic (AIR Centre) and the two main priorities: new data collection for innovative research; and synergies between space, climate, oceans and information sciences for the production and dissemination of new knowledge.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19736 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/spain.climate-kic.prod.twkmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2018\/10\/Con-la-Ministra-de-Angola.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>22nd November 2017, Florian\u00f3polis (Brazil) &#8211;
