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 EITHOS project, funded under Horizon Europe Cluster 3 call “Online identity theft is countered”, aims to develop a “European Identity Theft Observatory System” (EITHOS). The system will provide easy access to information and intelligence about previous and current identity theft related trends to empower EU citizens, Law Enforcements Agencies (LEAs), and policy makers to further contribute to the prevention, detection, and investigation of crimes related to online identity theft. The Cyber and Data Security Lab (CDSL), part of the Law, Science, Technology and Society (LSTS) Research Group at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), is one of the 12 partners in the EITHOS consortium, contributing its vast expertise on legal aspects of data protection, cybersecurity and information security law and policy.
