Horizon Europe Cluster 2: conditions and calls
The official Cluster 2 page identifies calls on culture, creativity and inclusive society. Application conditions must be read at the level of the topic and the work programme. Budgets and timetables are not uniform, and calls that have closed are no longer open for applications.
Horizon Europe Cluster 2 covers in particular culture, heritage, the creative industries and social transformation. It is not a flat-rate grant available simply by presenting a cultural project: each topic sets the research question, expected outcomes, partners, budget and participation rules.
