Horizon Europe is the framework programme for research and innovation.

In the 2021-2027 period, Horizon Europe will have a total budget allocation of of €95.517 billion (in current prices), which equals €84.9 billion (in constant 2018 prices). Horizon Europe will be implemented through three pillars: the Open Science pillar; the Global Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness pillar; and the Open Innovation pillar. The main aims are to strengthen science and technology, to foster industrial competiveness, and to implement the sustainable development goals in the EU.

The Covid-19 pandemic has demonstrated that research and innovation are drivers for economic recovery. Hundreds of millions of euros have been mobilised in coronavirus research projects under the previous EU funding programme, Horizon 2020. The new programme will continue to support health research and help the EU´s health systems to prepare for future crises.

Joint debate - Research and Innovation: MEPs debate

Cancer research, and its translation into everyday clinical practice, is fundamental to ensuring continual improvements in cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up care for survivors. The needs of basic cancer research must achieve a high profile with the EU Cancer Mission and Horizon Europe research and innovation programme in order to maintain Europe's position at the forefront of discovery and breakthrough in understanding cancer. This infoclip shows how scientists work on studies to find better ways to prevent and treat cancer. ICANS | Strasbourg Europe Cancer Institute combines the Paul Strauss Center, one of the Comprehensive Cancer Centers in France, and the University Hospital of Strasbourg oncology teams. This institute is entirely dedicated to patients and works in three different areas: cares teaching and research.

Every year, 3.5 million persons are diagnosed with cancer in the European Union. It is a serious health issue that will directly affect 40% of EU citizens with important impacts on the European health systems and economies. The von der Leyen Commission will present a European plan to fight cancer to support Member States to improve cancer control and care. On the occasion of World Cancer Day, the Commission is taking the first step by launching an EU wide public consultation on Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan.
