AGRO Horizon Europe Kick-off Webinar

Please sign up here by December 2 (Teams invitations will be sent December 3): https://events.au.dk/heu/signup 

Horizon Europe, the new EU framework programme, will open its calls in April 2021. Judging from the draft versions of the comprehensive work programme for Cluster 6 – Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment - there will be plenty of topics of relevance to AGRO researchers. The unprecedented high number of topics call for preparation and focus. 

With a view to enable AGRO researchers to get involved in a timely and proactive manner, AGRO together with AUs Research Support will tune in on the coming funding opportunities in the 2 year Cluster 6 – Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment work programme. We will address the following: What are the relevant topics? What are the conditions and what kind of support can be expected? What is a good application? Hopefully, the webinar will help you identify topics of interest, frame your ideas, identify partners and perhaps stimulate some to endeavour to coordinate a project.
