On January 8, Horizon Europe held a Brokerage Event, providing a platform for international researchers interested in collaborative projects to present their research themes and expressions of interest. The FGV Research and Applied Knowledge Network invited Brazilian researchers to an information session to introduce the event and the communication channels offered by the Brokerage platform.

Presentations at the event are typically aligned with specific calls. For this reason, a pre-selection of relevant calls was made to support researchers in identifying funding opportunities of interest.

Pre-selected Calls from Cluster 2 – WP 5: Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society
