The European Commission has recently launched the Call for the “European Green Deal” (in English, EU Green Deal), as part of the Horizon 2020 program.
The Green Deal Call, with a budget of 983 million euros, aims to mobilize research and innovation to promote a fair and sustainable social transition. Projects are expected to deliver tangible results relatively quickly and show how research and innovation can provide concrete solutions within the core priorities of the “European Green Deal”.
The call is structured into 11 areas; from BIOVEGEN we have prepared a report that includes the Challenges this call is directed towards. Of special interest to our sector are the areas:
- AREA 6: From farm to fork (74 Million €)
- AREA 7: Biodiversity and ecosystem services (80 Million €)
- AREA 8: Toxic-free environment and zero pollution (60 Million €)
Given the opportunities of this initiative, from BIOVEGEN we deemed it appropriate to prepare a Summary Report for our associates, which includes:
- Overview of the funds that will be available in the coming years
- Their structure and distribution criteria
- Key dates and aspects
- Version: September 2020.
