Horizon 

About Horizon

Horizon is Europe's key funding programme for research and innovation funding programme until 2027 EU Research and Innovation program ever with nearly €95.5 billion of funding available for a period of 7 years (2021 to 2027). It aims at tackling climate change, helping to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and boosting the EU’s competitiveness and growth.Through Horizon, the European Commission promises to facilitate collaboration and strengthen the impact of research and innovation in developing, supporting and implementing EU policies while tackling global challenges. Horizon 2020 is open to everyone, with a simple structure that reduces red tape and time so projects can get off the ground relatively quickly. 

Funding Opportunities 

The selection of the projects that will receive funding is done through calls for proposals. These are options to launch EU-funded scientific projects on topics decided by the European Commission. Whether or not a project will receive a grant depends on the quality of the planned activities, the business plan and the degree to which the project fits into the chosen call for proposal. 
​The calls for proposals will be published and made accessible for a variation of selected dates, depending on the call.
​
​

The program is structured into three main pillars:
  • Excellence in Science
These calls of proposals are funding the best science through open competition. This is through four programs: European Research Council, Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions and the Research Infrastructures
  • Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness​ 
This covers calls for proposals based on Health​,  Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society, Civil Security for Society,Digital,  Industry and Space, Climate, Energy and Mobility, Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment; and Non-nuclear direct actions of the Joint Research Centre
  • Innovative Europe
This covers calls for proposals that support innovative small and medium enterprises, use financial instruments to stimulate innovation or encourage the development of enabling and industrial technologies through the European Innovation Council, European Innovation Ecosystems; and European Institute of Innovation and Technology.
More information on this list of calls for proposals can be found on the Horizon website.

Possibilities for Aruba

Aruban initiatives are eligible for funding through the Horizon Europe programme as European projects. A application can be submitted through the electronic submission system on the Horizon Europe website. A proposal generally consists of 2 main parts: administrative forms (structured information of the basic administrative data, declarations of partners, organizations and contact persons, etc.) and the technical annex. The latter includes the detailed description of the planned research and innovation project outlining work packages, costs, etc. Further mandatory or optional annexes (e.g. supporting documents for ethics issues) can be required by the call and the given topic, as shown in the submission system.

The Office of EU and Kingdom relations (BEUK) can provide assistance and information to help with the application for planned Horizon Europe proposals for Aruban projects.
