ProgrammesA final evaluation of the Horizon 2020 programme (2014-2020) and an interim evaluation of the Horizon Europe programme (2021-2023) are announced and include stakeholder consultations.
The Horizon 2020 final evaluation runs from the second quarter of 2022 up to the fourth quarter of 2023. It will analyse the design and implementation, results and impacts of the programme from 2014 to 2020 and covers all Horizon 2020 instruments. The Horizon Europe interim evaluation runs from the fourth quarter of 2022 up to the third quarter of 2024. It will analyse the programme’s design, implementation and first results and will cover all Horizon Europe instruments.
For both evaluations the following stakeholder consultations are planned:
The consultations are targeted at main stakeholders identified which include researchers, business, academia, non-governmental organisations, public authorities, and EU-wide ‘umbrella’ organisations.
These evaluations will help the European Commission with implementation of current EU research and innovation measures and with the design of future measures. It also fulfils the Commission’s legal obligation to explain how it has spent public funds.
More information on these initiatives can be found on the “Have your say” webpage of the European Commission. For Horizon 2020 final evaluation here and for Horizon Europe interim evaluation here

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.
