Biodiversity in Horizon Europe

Funding opportunities, project insights, and ways to increase impact

25.06.2026, 13:00 - 14:30
Biodiversity is a key cross-cutting theme in Horizon Europe—and extends far beyond traditional nature conservation issues. The upcoming calls represent some of the last major funding opportunities for biodiversity-related topics in Horizon Europe.

This event provides a concise overview of the new NATURE Call, biodiversity topics in Horizon Europe Cluster 6, and other relevant initiatives.

The NATURE Call supports additional research and innovation activities in the field of biodiversity across the entire Pillar II of Horizon Europe, including in the areas of social sciences, industry, and health.

In addition to the calls for proposals, the focus will also be on experiences from ongoing projects: Which approaches have proven successful? How can project results be effectively utilized and carried forward? And what role do impact and exploitation play in biodiversity projects?

Take this opportunity to learn about current funding opportunities, gain practical insights, and exchange ideas with other stakeholders on biodiversity, impact, and exploitation.
