GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

Activities will support researchers of the social sciences and humanities to connect into all Clusters of Horizon Europe. To achieve its expected outcomes and objectives, the NCP network could cooperate with but should not duplicate actions foreseen in other thematic and horizontal Horizon Europe NCP networks.

Proposals should include a work package to implement matchmaking activities to link up potential participants from widening countries with emerging consortia in the domain of the Health Cluster. Specifically, matchmaking should take place by means of online tools, brokerage events, info days and bilateral meetings between project initiators and candidate participants from widening countries.

It is important to facilitate cooperation, identify and use synergies between the work of these two NCP and NFP networks – but also with other NCPs/NFPs responsible for different EU programmes providing funding available for health-related actions.

Special attention should be given to enhancing the competence of NCPs, including helping less experienced NCPs rapidly acquire the know-how built up in other countries. The proposal should cover the whole duration of Horizon Europe plus one year.
