ProgrammesAlthough Ukraine’s Association Agreement to Horizon Europe and Euratom R&T Programmes is not yet in force, Ukraine is eligible to EU funding under Horizon Europe as it has been included in the list of low-to-middle income countries in the Programme Guide to Horizon Europe.
The Commission is as flexible as possible with ongoing Horizon projects involving Ukrainian participants, in terms of reporting and deadlines for projects’ finalisation.
On 22 March, a dedicated portal ERA4Ukraine was launched to serve as a one-stop-shop for information on support to researchers of Ukraine made available at the level of EU, EU Member States and the Associated Countries, including bottom-up initiatives. It was configured under the existing Euraxess network.
Horizon4Ukraine initiative seeks to encourage ongoing Horizon projects to offer/advertise available support to researchers of Ukraine, in relation to job offers/training opportunities/social support etc. – all on voluntary basis. Please note that there is no additional budget linked to Horizon4Ukraine initiative.
The European Research Council (ERC) launched an initiative to publicize job opportunities linked to its ongoing grants - over 500 vacancies are already on offer: ERC for Ukraine | ERC: European Research Council (europa.eu)
Ukraine is a full member of COST and its researchers, regardless of their location, can apply for short-term research stays, virtual networking tools and/or join one of the action working groups under the COST Programme.
In addition, COST is offering dedicated paid traineeship opportunities for young people with the Bachelor degree or relevant experience and knowledge of English and living in Belgium. More info on https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/768469

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
