The objective of this new scheme is to tackle brain drain and precarity of researchers’ careers to make Europe more attractive to the most promising young talents. Applicants submit proposals for talent recruitment programmes that will provide researchers holding a doctoral degree with excellent research and academic opportunities, potentially coupled with management activities, to lead them to concrete and attractive career prospects. Proposed programmes can cover any research disciplines.
Summary
The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) have the goal to help build Europe’s capacity for research and innovation by investing in the long-term careers of excellent researchers. Therefore, this programme provides funding to excellent research and innovation as well as equip researchers at all stages of their career (regardless of age and nationality) with new knowledge and skills, through mobility across borders and exposure to different sectors and disciplines. Additionally, the MSCA fund the development of excellent doctoral and postdoctoral training programmes and collaborative research projects worldwide. Furthermore, it supports cooperation between industry and academia and innovative training to enhance employability and career development.
Programme Description
The principles underlying the programme are:
- Excellence: The MSCA focus on excellence in various aspects: excellence applies to the individual fellows supported or the collaborations fostered and knowledge transferred, as well as to the R&I methodologies applied, the research conducted and the training, supervision and career guidance provided.
- Mobility: The MSCA are based on physical, while researchers that receive funding have to move from one country to another to acquire new knowledge, skills and competences, and develop their research career. Additionally, virtual mobility it facilitates long-distance collaboration and be an effective mean to faster achieving research and training objectives. Therefore, proposals are encouraged to explore opportunities offered by e-infrastructures and related services.
- Bottom-up and open to the world: The MSCA are open to all domains of research and innovation, chosen freely by the applicants in a fully bottom-up manner.
- Recruitment, working/employment conditions and inclusiveness: promoting open, merit-based and transparent recruitment, attractive working and employment conditions are a cornerstone of the MSCA. Also, it pays attention to equal opportunities and inclusiveness and so, all MSCA-funded projects are encouraged to embrace diversity, take measures to facilitate mobility, counter-act gender and disability-related barriers to it.
- Supervision: the supervision, contributes to creating a supportive environment for the researchers to conduct their work and achieve successful research. MSCA beneficiaries must ensure adequately supervision, appropriate career guidance, guiding, supporting, directing, advising and mentoring while these are important factors for a researcher’s career path.
- Open science and responsible research and innovation: The MSCA endorse this principle through engaging society at large and integrating the gender and ethical dimensions. Also it promotes Open Science practices through targeted training activities, ensuring open access to research outcomes, including FAIR4 data handling, encouraging formal and informal science education and feeding back research results into teaching and education.
- European Green Deal: the MSCA will contribute to promote sustainable research in line with the European Green Deal, the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals. Projects are encouraged to implement measures to minimize the environmental footprint of their activities.
- Synergies: The MSCA promote the creation of strong links with the Cohesion policy funds and the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), by creating synergies through its COFUND action and enabling complementarities via awarding a Seal of Excellence certificate to proposals submitted to mono-beneficiary MSCA calls.

MSCA Staff Exchanges 2026
OpenedCode: 38971 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-MSCA-2026-SE-01-01 | Programme name: Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) (2021-2027) | Sub-program: Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) (2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 16/12/2025 | End submission calls: 16/04/2026
MSCA Staff Exchanges involve organisations from the academic and non-academic sectors (including SMEs) from across the globe. International cooperation through the participation of organisations from non-associated third countries is strongly encouraged.
Support is provided for international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary mobility of R&I staff leading to knowledge transfer between participating organisations.

Applicants submit proposals for new or existing doctoral or postdoctoral programmes with an impact on the enhancement of human resources in R&I at regional, national or international level. These programmes will be co-funded by MSCA COFUND.
Proposed programmes can cover any research disciplines (“bottom-up”), but exceptionally can also focus on specific disciplines, notably when they are based on national or regional Research and Innovation Strategies for Smart Specialisation (RIS3 strategies). In this case, the range of covered disciplines should allow reasonable flexibility for the researchers to define their topic.
Funding synergies with Cohesion Policy Funds and other EU funding sources are strongly encouraged.
A Career Development Plan must be jointly established by the supervisor and each recruited researcher upon recruitment. In addition to research objectives, this Plan comprises the researcher’s training and career needs, including training on transferable skills, teaching, planning for publications and participation in conferences and events aimed at opening science and research to citizens. The Plan must be established at the beginning of the recruitment and should be revised (and updated where needed) within 18 months.

Proposals should cover both the organisation of the European Researchers’ Night and the implementation of the Researchers at Schools initiative.
It supports events that can last up to two days: they can start on Friday and continue the following day. Pre-events, prior to the main event, and related post-events, such as wrap-up meetings or small-scale follow-up events, can also be organised. It is the occasion for a Europe-wide public and media event for the promotion of research careers.
The European Researchers’ Night targets the general public, addressing and attracting people regardless of the level of their scientific background, with a special focus on young people and their families, pupils and students, and notably those who do not have easy access to, and thus are less inclined to engage in STEAM fields (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) or research activities.
The Researchers at Schools initiative brings school classes to research facilities and researchers to schools or other pedagogical and educational centres. This allows researchers to interact with pupils on societal challenges and on the key role of research to address them. Pupils will thus also learn directly about research projects and initiatives related to EU main priorities.
