The second Horizon Europe strategic plan 2025-2027
The Horizon Europe strategic plan 2025-2027 steers research and innovation funding 2025-2027, addressing the key global challenges such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, the digital transition and an ageing population.
The strategic plan sets out 3 strategic orientations for research and innovation investment under Horizon Europe for the years 2025-2027:
- Green transition
- Digital transition
- A more resilient, competitive, inclusive and democratic Europe
Open strategic autonomy and securing Europe’s leading role in developing and deploying critical technologies are overarching principles that apply across all 3 key strategic orientations.
The strategic plan raises the ambition of Horizon Europe on biodiversity and commits to a target of 10% of Horizon Europe’s total budget 2025-2027 being dedicated to biodiversity-related topics. This new commitment complements existing targets for climate expenditure (35% over the lifetime of Horizon Europe) and main digital activities (€13 billion over the same period).
