Path to the Digital Decade
The cooperation mechanism consists of
- a structured, transparent and shared monitoring system based on the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) to measure progress towards each of the 2030 targets
- an annual report in which the Commission evaluates progress and provides recommendations for actions. The second ‘Report on the state of the Digital Decade’ was published in July 2024
- every two years, adjusted Digital decade strategic roadmaps in which the Member States outline adopted or planned actions to reach the 2030 targets
- a mechanism to support the implementation of multi-country projects, the European Digital Infrastructure Consortium
- Multi-country projects, large-scale projects that no single Member State could develop on its own.
Digital rights and principles areas
- People at the centre
- Freedom of choice
- safetay and security
- solidarity and inclusion
- participation
- sustainability
Dual-use export authorisations: four types
EU General Export Authorisations (EUGEAs):
EU General Export Authorisations (EUGEAs) allow exports of dual-use items to certain destinations under certain conditions
National General Export Authorisations (NGEAs):
National General Export Authorisations (NGEAs) may be issued by EU Member States if they are consistent with existing EUGEAs and do not refer to items listed in Annex IIg of the Regulation.
Global licenses:
Global licenses can be granted by competent authorities to one exporter and may cover multiple items to multiple countries of destination or end users.
Individual licenses:
Individual licenses can be granted by competent authorities to one exporter and cover exports of one or more dual-use items to one end-user or consignee in a third country.
