Das EU-Programm Horizon Europe plant 50 Förderungen mit 100.000 € – 350.000 € pro Projekt bei einem Gesamtbudget von 15,73 Mio. €. Die Einreichungsfrist endet am 8. Juni 2027 (EU-Ausschreibungen enden meist um 17:00 Uhr Brüsseler Zeit). Organisationen aus EU-Mitgliedstaaten und assoziierten Ländern wie der Türkei können in der Regel teilnehmen; maßgeblich sind die Bedingungen des Topics.

Project results are expected to contribute to the following outcomes:
For researchers
• Enhanced opportunities to interact with citizens and local, regional and national authorities;
• Improved communication skills and competences to interact with a non-research audience, notably with pupils and students.
For organisations
• Increased reputation and visibility of participating organisations in terms of hosting excellent research projects towards the general public and possible future students;
• Researchers’ work made more tangible, concrete, accessible, and thus opening research and science to all;
• Improved outreach to all audiences across Europe, and notably those who do not have an easy access to science and research activities;
• Better communication of R&I results and activities to society, increased and strengthened opportunities for citizens’ engagement.
Proposals should cover both the organisation of the European Researchers’ Night and the implementation of the Researchers at Schools initiative.
The European Researchers' Night takes place every year, on the last Friday of September. 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 learn directly about research projects.
Types of activities
European Researchers’ Night activities can combine education with entertainment, especially when addressing young audiences. They can take various forms, such as exhibitions, hands-on experiments, science shows, simulations, debates, games, competitions, quizzes, etc. Where appropriate, engagement with educational institutions should be sought in order to encourage formal and informal science education with the aim of improving the scientific knowledge base. The European Researchers’ Night should be highlighted as a European and Europe-wide event. Additionally, each proposal should promote the European Union, EU-funded research and its impact on citizens’ daily life in the most appropriate way, according to the set-up and the configuration of the event, its location and its activities.
Researchers at Schools activities will allow researchers to showcase their work and interact with pupils. They can take various forms, such as presentations, discussions, speed-dating, citizen science, science shows, summer schools, nature walks or visits to research facilities. Where appropriate, researchers should receive training ahead of the activities on science communication, especially targeting a young audience. The Researchers at Schools activities should take place at any time during the project duration and should be subject to a dedicated promotion, particularly towards schools and other pedagogical and educational centres.
Involvement of researchers funded by Horizon Europe or previous Framework Programmes, notably by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, is highly encouraged.
