• To provide customer-driven scientific and
  technical support for the conception,
  implementation and monitoring of EU policies.

  policy-making process, it serves the common
  interest of the Member States, while being
  independent of special interests, private or
  national.
• To carry out its mission,
• the JRC has a unique combination of facilities
  and expertise transcending national boundaries.
  Moreover through its networks it stimulates
  collaborative research and broadens its knowledge
  base.
