French term or phrase: rapport de veille et de recherche
Il s'agit du sous-titre d'un rapport. Est-ce que "awareness and reserach report" est bien approprié?

Thanks Aisha, and the other as well. Yes Monitoring is better than awareness and watch or competitive, as eveything in the report comes from open sources.

research and competitive intelligence report


Explanation:
"competitive intelligence" refers (quite possibly in addition to industrial espionnage!) to the monitoring/tracking of what competitors are up to, openly by means of following their publications, patents, etc. in the hope of building on their research and experience. It therefore fits in perfectly naturally with one's own research.

Monitoring and Research of Major Issues


Explanation:
C'ést le même truc sur la France, là? Eh bien...je pense qu'il s'agit des ''issues'' qui concerne la France en Europe, non? Awareness ne vas pas dans ce contexte.....Il s'agit des grands thèmes de réflexion comme t'as dit dans l'autre question...
