Activity Plan for 2026

The 2026 Activity Plan is now available for consultation.

The A3ES Activity Plan for 2026 is part of the implementation of the 2025–2028 Strategic Plan, reaffirming the Agency’s commitment to promoting innovation in Portuguese and European higher education.


The national context is marked by a significant legal reform, which requires greater transparency, efficiency, and international alignment. At the European level, the revision of the European Standards and Guidelines (ESG) and the development of the European University Alliances stand out, while at the global level, digital transformation imposes challenges on the education, research, and management of institutions.
