ProgrammesOn 11 December 2025, the European Commission has adopted the Horizon Europe Main Work Programme 2026-2027 and has published it on the EU Funding & Tenders Portal.
The Work Programmes can be found under reference documents on the Funding & Tenders Portal.
On the NCP Flanders website the published work programmes can be consulted in the Horizon Europe section i.e. on each subprogramme page on the right hand side under ‘work programme and calls’.
A novelty is that the Commission has dedicated a specific part of the work programme to horizontal activities, which you can find here. This novel part includes two calls: a call on R&I in Support of the Clean Industrial Deal and a call on AI in science, supporting trustworthy AI applications in different sectors and contributing to the recently launched RAISE initiative (Resource for AI Science in Europe).
Find out more about what to expect from the work programme via the Commission’s official press release.
An overview of the Info Days and Brokerage Events on the Horizon Europe 2026 calls can be found in this NCP Flanders news article. Some have already taken place, others will take place in the coming weeks / months.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
