European Defence Fund (EDF)
10 August 2026
On 13 July 2026, the European Union and Ukraine signed the Association Agreement on the participation of Ukraine in the European Defence Fund (EDF). This Association Agreement will formally enter into force once the Parties have notified each other of the completion of their respective internal procedures necessary for that purpose.
When the Association Agreement will enter into force, legal entities established in Ukraine will become eligible as beneficiaries and subcontractors involved in the actions supported by the EDF under the conditions laid down in Regulation (EU) 2021/697. In the meantime, Ukrainian legal entities may already apply and be considered as consortium members for the EDF Calls for proposals for 2026. For more information see QnA.

Digitale Wolven, a Belgian non-profit organisation, forms the national hub for Belgium and the Netherlands in the Digital Europe project Code4Europe. Code4Europe aims to form a generation that is comfortable with digital tools and confident enough to build with them by widening digital literacy, making coding accessible to people who would otherwise never try it, and encouraging young people to picture themselves working in the digital sector.
