Horizon Europe

The EU R&I framework programme Horizon 2020 has recently come to an end. It is succeeded by a new programme called Horizon Europe (HEU, 2021-2027), which has a record-high budget and offers many new interesting opportunities. Potentially interesting 2021 and 2022 calls in HEU’s Societal Challenges programme have now been identified. Please find them here. 

Should you be interested in one of these, please feel free to reach out to Alisa Kerschbaum and Martina Chylkova. The FMG Grant Office support team offers support for coordinating interdisciplinary and collaborative grant proposals. For more information on who we are, what we do and the type of support we offer see our CORE team page.

Impact Grants

Our department is highly successful in acquiring grants in the second flow of funds, especially the personal (ERC, NWO) grants. However, there are still many opportunities in the field of consortium grants (like NWA/Horizon) that relate to social issues such as sustainability, health, resilient societies, digitization, etc. The resources that are distributed via RPAs, the IP and the Sector Plans also explicitly require social relevance of research and, moreover, this often calls for interdisciplinarity and collaboration with external partners. To stimulate this sort of research, we have awarded several internal Impact Grants (below) that should help lay the foundation for new partnerships with other disciplines, other knowledge institutes and private and public parties.
