Description:

Horizon Europe is the world’s largest research and innovation collaboration program, with a budget of €95.5 billion (CDN$140 billion) over 2021-2027. More than €53 billion (CDN$77 billion) has been allocated to Pillar II.

Recently, the Government of Canada completed substantive negotiations with the European Commission to join Horizon Europe as an associate country under Pillar II. Associate membership allows researchers at Canadian institutions to participate in applications to Pillar II calls for proposals and receive funding from Horizon Europe if the applications are successful.

Eligibility:

For most calls for proposals, you must apply as a team of at least 3 partner organisations from 3 different European Union or associated countries. Canada is now considered an associated country. At least one of the 3 partners must be from an EU country.

In addition to these 3 partners, organisations from other countries might be able to join your consortium. Successful applications tend to involve 8-12 partner organisations.

If you have questions and/or intend to apply to a Horizon Europe Pillar II call, either as a lead applicant or as a co-applicant on an application led by another institution, please contact Christina Pellegrini or Virginia Viscardi, Senior Advisors, ROADS.
