Over €1 billion requested in Horizon Europe security research funding

In total, € 216 million is available across six calls for projects working on a wide range of security challenges. From security for smart and safe cities and public spaces;  novel concepts for the management of pandemic crises; new methods to prevent, investigate and mitigate the spreading of disinformation; security on-board passenger ships to digital security, privacy and personal data protection in healthcare.

Projects will be selected for funding with the support of external independent evaluators drawn from the European Commission’s experts database. Evaluations are expected to start on the 13th of December 2021, and the selection results will be published by mid-April 2022 at the latest. REA will sign grant agreements with the successful applicants in July 2022.
