RENATER is the French NREN and is therefore a member of the European association GEANT, which currently brings together 44 NRENs. GEANT published a position paper at the end of 2023 concerning the development of EOSC nodes (https://resources.geant.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Position-paper-GEANT-and-the-NRENs-have-a-long-history-in-scalable-federated-environments-that-can-support-the-creation-of-EOSC-Nodes_.pdf).
