European funding programmes are notoriously diverse. They are politically driven, many follow a top-down approach, and the field is difficult to grasp. But fear not!
This two and a half hour workshop will give you an overview of European funding programmes and their political background. We will focus on the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, Horizon Europe, but will also look at smaller funding lines to give you a better chance of identifying an appropriate programme for you project idea. You will learn how to read calls for proposals, and will get some basic tips on how to prepare a competitive proposal.
