The Black Sea Horizon Project has developed the Grant Scheme to financially support the participation of local researchers from Black Sea countries in brokerage events and other activities related to Horizon2020 in the EU Member States or Associated Countries.  Such events will allow researchers to network with EU consortia, to build-up partnerships for subsequent joint research activities and to make their institutions and/or their research networks better known.

The thematic priorities of the Call are the following three topics:

  • 'Sustainable agriculture',
  • 'Resource efficiency in relation to water / water management' and
  • 'Applied chemistry & smart materials'.


Maximum funding per grant is 1000 EUR.

The Guidelines for Application and relevant templates will be available on the Black Sea Horizon website . A tentative list of recommended events will be available; however, interested candidates are free to identify other similar events of high importance which may be also considered eligible.

Please note that the submission deadline will be 1st July 2016.

Scientific field: Cross-thematic/Interdisciplinary, Agricultural Sciences, Materials science and engineering, Resource efficiency and environment | Related Topics: BLACK SEA HORIZON, Research and innovation community, Research and Innovation support Initiatives | Geographical focus: Black Sea Region
