Programmes Enhancing EU R&IThe call for the EU Award for Gender Equality Champions in R&I has been launched to complement and reinforce the eligibility criterion requirement for legal entities from Member States and Associated Countries that are public bodies, research organisations or higher education establishments (including private research organisations and higher education establishments) applying to Horizon Europe to have a Gender Equality Plan in place (HE general annexes p. 14).
Organisations listed above can apply in one of the three following categories:
Organisations that can demonstrate a significant and sustained record of activity and a high level of achievement through the implementation of their GEP. (link to F&T portal call topic page)
Organisations that have recently finalised the implementation of their first GEP and can demonstrate the most progress achieved through its implementation.
Organisations that have developed the most innovative inclusive GEP – i.e. a GEP addressing intersections between gender and at least two other social categories, such as racial or ethnic origin, social origin, sexual orientation and gender identity (LGBTIQ) or disability – and can demonstrate concrete results obtained through its implementation.
Each winner will receive a trophy and a 100 000 euro prize. The deadline for applications is 18 June 2025. Previous champions come from Ireland, France, Poland, Spain, Sweden and a pan-European research infrastructure INSTRUCT-ERIC.
More information is available in the European Commission press release and prize webpage and the above call topic pages on the European Commission Funding & Tender portal.

The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
