Horizon Europe is the European Union (EU) funding programme for the period 2021 – 2027, which targets the sectors of research and innovation. The programme’s budget is around € 95.5 billion, of which € 5.4 billion is from NextGenerationEU to stimulate recovery and strengthen the EU’s resilience in the future, and € 4.5 billion is additional aid.
The results of the project are expected to provide evidence and documented results for the formulation of future initiatives, policies and strategies that address social change, future needs and expectations of new generations in relation to the sustainability of aquatic ecosystems and enhance the literacy of the oceans between them. The connection of the new generations with the oceans, seas and waters is also expected to be better understood, ultimately leading to new products and services, thus supporting the innovative potential of the marine / shipping related sectors. This will provide information and help outline social interaction plans for new participatory approaches and networking opportunities, aiming to bring the younger generation closer to the sea and the water and to create or strengthen their emotional connection with it.
Proposals under this topic will address both aspects below:
Proposals should contribute to stimulate thinking and relevant action through the production of an evidence-based study and help reshape and recalibrate initiatives already in the field and future related policies and strategies; interaction with all relevant main marine and freshwater research and innovation stakeholders (public authorities, companies, universities, research facilities, citizens, etc.) and networks or initiatives on the ground, through whose input visions and strategies can emerge and converge, is sought.
