Excellence Lab: Boosting Research and Innovation Cooperation between Ethiopia and Bavaria in the Energy Sector – Session II

After a successful first workshop on 16 February 2022, this event serves as a follow-up session. Participation is not limited to the attendees of the first workshop.

This event will inform researchers, start-ups, companies and municipalities from Bavaria and Ethiopia about European funding opportunities for research and innovation in the energy sector under Horizon Europe. Furthermore, you will receive insights on successful project applications. The Kilimanjaro Innovation Hub, as well as the Bavarian Office for Africa and the Bavarian Research Alliance will present their activities and support for Ethiopian and Bavarian stakeholders in the field of research and innovation.

International cooperation with the Global South, especially Africa, is an important part of Horizon Europe, the EU's framework programme for research and innovation. The programme is embedded in the relevant policy framework of the European Commission, such as the joint Africa-EU strategy, with a focus on achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
