Horizon Europe Cluster 2: Funding Research for Cultural Heritage & Social Change
Horizon Europe Cluster 2: Funding Research for Cultural Heritage & Social Change
Horizon Europe is the EU’s key funding programme for research and innovation. Its Cluster 2 for ‘Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society’ supports research that strengthens European democratic values, safeguards cultural heritage, and fosters socio-economic transformation. Projects funded under this strand aim to provide evidence-based policy recommendations for a socially just and inclusive Europe.
For civil society organisations, participating in Horizon Europe-funded research offers the opportunity to shape research that addresses societal challenges and benefits local communities, to influence key policy areas, and to gain access to cutting-edge research, data, and networks.
