This Work Programme distils the first three years of the 10-Year Roadmap into a plan of action that has been developed closely with our National Nodes. The eight Strategic Objectives & Operational Goals which are relevant for the upcoming three-year period (section 2) are mirrored with the Roadmap but further detail is provided. In alignment with our Roadmap, we will emphasise a One Health approach also in this Work Programme, under scoring the critical interconnection of human, animal, and environmental health research. It is supported by our core activities (sections 3 and 4) within each department; a continuation of the 2022-2024 programme.
For the next three years, our focus will hence be on activities towards accelerating datafication and promoting green biobanking. To support this, we will take necessary steps to secure infrastructural scalability, sustainability and service excellence, while strengthening the National Node and biobank community within Member States. Together with specific tasks in education, training, and capacity building, we will emphasise stakeholder engagement and awareness.
Ultimately, BBMRI-ERIC will engage in a set of activities to advance a global biobanking community and play an impactful leadership role to strengthen the global biobanking community. Read on to see in more detail how we intend to realise the first three years of BBMRI’s 10-Year Roadmap, starting in 2025.
