Calls for proposals
EDCTP2 programme
The EDCTP2 programme launched 59 calls for proposals from 2014-2020 under Horizon 2020, the European Union’s Framework Programme for Research & Innovation. No new calls for proposals (2021-2025) will be launched as the EDCTP2 programme moves into the phase of managing current projects through to successful completion.
Horizon Europe
The European Commission has published work programme 2021-2022 under the EU Horizon Europe. The first calls for proposals open on the Commission’s Funding and Tenders Portal on 22 June. A topic on Innovative approaches to enhance poverty-related diseases research in sub-Saharan Africa continues cooperation investments in clinical research on infectious disease between the EU and sub-Saharan Africa. This call provides funding opportunities in the transition period after the last calls of the EDCTP2 programme until the launch of a future Global Health EDCTP3 programme.
Please direct all enquiries about new funding opportunities to the Horizon Europe programme. EDCTP is unable to respond to questions about Horizon Europe calls for proposals.
More information
The European Research and Innovation Days on 23 and 24 June 2021 mark the occasion to discuss Horizon Europe amongst policymakers, researchers, innovators and citizens. Horizon Europe Information Days targeting potential applicants take place between 28 June and 9 July 2021. More details can be found at Commission to invest €14.7 billion from Horizon Europe (europa.eu).
