Overview:

Horizon Europe is the European Union’s funding program for research and innovation with a budget of €95.5 billion over 7 years.

Under its Pillar II, Horizon Europe funds collaborative research and innovation projects by international teams of researchers to tackle global challenges in areas such as health, climate change, energy and digital economy. As of 2024, as Canada becomes associated to Pillar II, Canadian partners in such research consortia are eligible for direct funding from the European Union.
