European missions: Delivering on Europe’s strategic priorities

The objective of this paper is to provide information on: What are the EU missions to the European Commission’s policy approach to paradigm shifts? How can they concretely contribute to the delivery of the von der Leyen Commission’s strategic priorities, in particular to the Digital and Territorial Agendas, and the European Green Deal? Which horizontal enablers will help the EU missions succeed? The analysis illustrates that through their strong co-creation dimension both across policy sectors and government silos, as well as with stakeholders and society at large, the EU missions will be crucial instruments to deliver the paradigm shift that this Commission has set out to achieve.
