SEA-EU-NET infographic: ASEAN research and ASEAN-EU research co-operation

This poster is a result of the analysis work in the SEA-EU-NET 2 project that supports ASEAN-EU co-operation in science, technology and innovation and related policy dialogue. It presents evidence of bibliometric analyses, depicting ASEAN research ouput and ASEAN-EU research co-operation between 2004-2013, together with FP7 participation analyses.

The SEA-EU-NET infographic poster does not only give a detailed impression of the significant scientific activities in the ASEAN region, but also looks at the participation rate of ASEAN Member States in the EU’s Framework Programme 7.

Some major findings visualised on the info poster are:

  • The Europen Research Area (ERA) is the main co-publication partner of ASEAN, indicating the relevance of the EU for research and innovation co-operation: Southeast Asia’s co-publication links with the ERA are stronger than with any other region including the US. In 13% of all papers published in ASEAN Member States between 2004 and 2013, there is at least one Europe-based co-author (US: 11%).
  • The co-operation is particularly strong in areas like agriculture, fisheries & forestry, biology, biomedical research and earth & environmental sciences.
  • The co-publication output with major global partners is generally increasing since 2004, highlighting ASEAN-ERA (European Research Area), ASEAN-US and ASEAN-CN as the strongest co-operation relations.

Next to these highlights, there is still plenty of interesting information to be found on the infographic. SEA-EU-NET 2 is looking forward to present the poster at the forthcoming STI days in Paris (17-19 March, 2015) and to share it also in our social media sphere.
