Cluster 5 and EU missions: EU updates drafts for 2026–2027 work programmes

 Horizon Europe Key Visual

At the beginning of October, the European Commission once again made an updated draft of the 2026–27 work programmes for the “Climate, Energy, and Mobility” cluster and for the five EU missions available in the Comitology Register once again. Please note, however, that these are not final documents and significant changes are still possible!

To increase transparency, the European Commission has regularly published draft Horizon Europe work programmes for 2026–27 since the beginning of the year. This includes the documents for Cluster 5 and the EU missions, for which updated versions are now available. This allows interested organisations and consortia to better prepare for upcoming calls for proposals.

The draft work programmes are available to download from the European Commission's website:

Updated draft work programme for Cluster 5 (as of October 10, 2025)

Updated draft work programme for EU missions (as of October 1, 2025)

Please note that the draft texts do not yet constitute a legally binding basis for an application. The official adoption of the binding work programme text is not expected until the end of 2025.
