For the attention of the Horizon Europe Framework Programme stakeholders!

A new page “Horizontal Activities”, dedicated to one of the key novelties in work programme 2026-2027, was launched on the Horizon Europe Office in Ukraine’s website. The aim is the introduction of horizontal calls designed to connect different parts of Horizon Europe in support of key strategic areas.

CID-2026-01 – the horizontal call “R&I in Support of the Clean Industrial Deal” is designed to implement the EU’s commitments under the Clean Industrial Deal through targeted research and innovation. With an indicative budget of EUR 540 million, this call aims to accelerate the market deployment of cutting-edge clean technologies and decarbonised industry solutions, with a focus on both technological excellence and market readiness.

RAISE-2026-01 – the horizontal call “AI in Science” is aimed at fostering trustworthy AI solutions to tackle significant societal and industrial challenges. It contributes to the implementation of the “Resource for AI Science in Europe” (RAISE) pilot, as announced in the European Strategy for Artificial Intelligence in Science. This call supports safe, responsible, ethical and transparent AI applications across key sectors, such as advanced materials, agriculture, environment and food, and is in line with Europe’s broader digital transition goals. By embedding these innovations, this work programme seeks to enhance Europe’s R&I leadership, thereby having a substantial impact on sustainability, digital innovation and inclusive growth.
