The HORIZON-SESAR-2025 calls are part of the Horizon Europe programme, aimed at funding projects that strengthen the European Digital Sky.

Coordinated by the SESAR 3 Joint Undertaking, they drive the transformation of the Air Traffic Management (ATM) system through disruptive technologies, advanced automation, and environmental solutions.

These calls seek not only to improve the efficiency of Europe’s airspace but also to reduce aviation’s environmental footprint, optimise air navigation services, and ensure a safe transition towards future air mobility.

The HORIZON-SESAR-2025 calls target:

  • Aviation and technology companies.
  • Universities and research centres specialising in aviation, drones, and telecommunications.
  • Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs).
  • Innovative SMEs in advanced air mobility and sustainability.
  • European consortia involving partners from various Member States.

Transnational cooperation is prioritised to strengthen the European Research Area in air traffic management and innovative air mobility.

UNCHAIN - Revolutionising urban logistics & space management

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
