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 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.
