The EU Award for Gender Equality Champions was created under Horizon Europe to recognise the results achieved by academic and research organisations in the implementation of gender equality plans (GEPs). GEPs is an eligibility criterion for all public bodies, higher education institutions and research organisations from EU Member States and associated countries wishing to participate in Horizon Europe. The eligibility criterion was introduced for calls with deadlines in 2022 and onwards.
The award is open to universities, higher education institutions, and other research performing organisations (public or private), established in an EU Member State or a non-EU country associated to Horizon Europe.
There are three categories: Sustainable, Newcomer and Inclusive. Deadline to apply is 16 October 17:00 CET. The evaluation is expected to be finalized by March 2025. Each winner will receive a €100,000 prize: one in the sustainable and inclusive categories and two in newcomer category.

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
