The Horizon Europe framework programme, among other things, contributes to the fight against climate change, helps achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and stimulates the European Union's international competitiveness and economic growth.
The European Research Executive Agency (REA), mandated by the European Commission to support EU policy in the area of research and innovation, funds high-quality research and innovation projects that generate knowledge for the benefit of society. REA also manages promotional activities for agricultural products. Therefore, the REA's responsibilities include, among others: managing research projects supported as part of Horizon Europe, the world's largest research and innovation framework programme to date, running from 2021 to 2027. Supporting research and boosting innovation is a key objective of the Programme arising from the EU's strategy for the coming years. This is the European Green Deal strategy.
