In short

This is a Research and Innovation Action under Horizon Europe. The budget is €60 million for about 6 grants of €10 million each. It is paid as a lump sum, so you report results instead of costs. Deadline: 14 January 2027.

What the call wants to achieve

  • stakeholders are empowered to co-create, deploy and replicate viable ecosystem restoration measures leading to their wider uptake, with solutions to address implementation bottlenecks and financing issues
  • competent authorities in charge of implementing the EU Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR) can design and reuse effective deployment frameworks, informed by evidence and lessons generated through living labs across different contexts
  • social, economic and environmental co-benefits, risks and trade-offs of nature restoration activities are demonstrated, addressed and made explicit to support informed decision-making and scaling, including, where appropriate, potential One Health aspects.
