New to Horizon Europe, the five Missions are part of the second pillar of the Framework Programme. The Missions offer a new approach to generating resolutely innovative solutions and initiatives – by identifying major contemporary societal challenges to be resolved by 2030. The Missions are based on a simple principle: collaboration between different players (citizens, local and regional authorities, businesses, research bodies, etc.). Each Mission offers calls for projects on its own themes.
Euronovia is currently a partner in the Mission Ocean’s SHORE project.
The 5 Horizon Europe Missions
You will find below the calendar of calls for proposals, broken down by title and call number, available budget and submission deadline. The full 2023-2025 Work Programme is available here.
