Date: 2020.03.01

H2020 and Horizon Europe are the flagship programmes of the European Union’s research, development and innovation policy, aimed at boosting the continent’s competitiveness. The programmes help EU Member States work together on forward-looking projects that offer global solutions to environmental, social and economic challenges, among others. Between 2021 and 2027, the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme will make nearly EUR 100 billion in funding available for calls for applications.

Direct EU consortium calls

Within the framework of the project titled Innovációs Ökoszisztéma fejlesztése a Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetemen (Development of the Innovation Ecosystem at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design), with project ID 2019-1.2.1-EGYETEMI-ÖKO-2019-00001), the Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe Information Point operates at our university from 1 February 2020.

Our goal is to have MOME successfully participate in the European Commission’s H2020 and Horizon Europe Framework Programme for Research, Development and Innovation calls for proposals announced for Member States.

To this end, the HORIZON Information Point provides the following services:
- identification of European-level competences of MOME researchers / research teams, mapping of research areas;
- recommending open calls, providing information;
- seeking out relevant international consortium membership opportunities;
- support in finding partners: preparation of B2B events, MOME presence on partner-seeking platforms;/
- holding consultations and information forums to mobilise potential applicants;
- collecting ‘best practices’: sharing studies and research results from H2020-winning projects with stakeholders;
- preparing and coordinating the submission of international calls for applications;
- strengthening and broadening MOME’s domestic and international network of contacts, building working relationships;

staff of the Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe Information Point:

System-level thinking in the winning student projects of the ‘Jump into the Future!’ competition

Water still feels like a given in our everyday lives – but for how much longer? This pressing issue was tackled by secondary school students in the 2025 edition of the ‘Jump into the Future!’ creative competition. Working in teams, pupils from Years 7 to 10 developed bold, imaginative ideas for the future of one of life’s most essential resources. In the second round, selected teams refined their concepts in close collaboration with MOME mentors. At the final on 25 June, ten teams presented their forward-thinking visions, with four of them awarded by a jury of MOME faculty. First place went to Ísbíltúr, second to Bacsaók, third to Code Noir, while Newwave received a special prize. All four stood out not only for their creativity, but also for their systems-level approach, serving as a powerful reminder that water scarcity is no distant threat but an issue we must act on now.
