This year’s edition will mark the official launch of Horizon Europe, the new EU research and innovation programme (2021-2027).

As a strategic partner, the EU seeks to enhance cooperation with Africa to promote actions targeted at finding locally adapted solutions to challenges that are global in nature, but which often hit Africa hardest. The Horizon Europe work programme 2021-2022 will include an ambitious number of topics under calls for proposals that are particularly relevant for cooperation with Africa.

The Africa Initiative under Horizon Europe is a result of the first ever EU-AU Research and Innovation Ministerial (July 2020) and will further strengthen long-term cooperation in finding solutions to the human health and socio-economic impacts of, and recovery from, the COVID-19 crisis. The Africa Initiative under Horizon Europe responds to four joint priorities: Public Health, Green Transition, Technology and Innovation, and Capacities for Science.

This session will promote and explain the Africa Initiative under Horizon Europe to interested European and African Research and Innovation stakeholders.
