Horizon Europe is the European Union’s flagship research and innovation programme with an ambitious budget of 95.5 billion Euros. One of the key advantages of Horizon Europe is its comprehensive approach, fostering collaborations across various sectors and disciplines. Participation in Horizon Europe offers not only funding, but also facilitates international networking and access to new markets, addressing global challenges such as climate change, green transition and digital transformation.

The Conference aims to raise awareness among participants in Turkmenistan about the Horizon Europe Programme with a specific focus on Cluster 5 “Climate, Energy, and Mobility.” It will present funding opportunities, participation rules and highlight projects and initiatives supported by the Programme in the Central Asia region. Featuring speakers from the Energy Community and Central Asia, the event will showcase how Horizon Europe can support international research collaboration, particularly in areas like sustainable energy. Participants will also gain practical insights from Kazakhstan’s experience in participating in the Programme and promoting it at the national level. The conference will provide valuable networking and knowledge-sharing opportunities with delegates from Central Asia and Energy Community member countries.
