Info-days for EU Missions to take place between 18 and 19 January 2022

The European Commission has announced dedicated Info-Days for the EU Missions to be held virtually between 18 and 19 January 2022.

EU Missions are an additional part of the Horizon Europe research and innovation programme for 2021-2027 aiming to address some of the greatest challenges facing our society.  

The Info-Days will present a wide range of new topics for all five missions, which are part of the amended Missions’ Work Programme 2021 under Horizon Europe:

  • Adaptation to Climate Change;
  • Restore our Ocean and Waters by 2030;
  • A Soil Deal for Europe;
  • Cancer;
  • 100 Climate-Neutral and Smart cities by 2030. 

The actions include direct support to key overarching EU priorities, such as the European Green Deal, a Europe fit for the Digital Age, the Beating Cancer action plan and an Economy that works for people.

The event will provide prospective applicants with specific information on the new Missions’ Work Programme calls, funding opportunities and timelines. The Commission invites researchers and innovators as well as citizens and all interested stakeholders to take part in the five missions.
