As part of the EU's Horizon 2020 research framework programme, the European Green Deal Call has a budget of 1 billion euros and is made up of a total of 11 topic areas, which together are intended to support the implementation of the European Green Deal. For research performing institutions in EU Member States and associated partner countries, this includes new opportunities for joint R&I cooperation and at the same time provides an insight into such thematic fields that will also play a central role in the upcoming EU research framework programme Horizon Europe.
