Description complète :

Introduction:

The Joint Transnational Call (JTC) is launched in the framework of the European partnership Water4All and supports research and innovation projects to improve water security in the long term. In line with the strategic objectives of Water4All, the results should contribute to the implementation of evidence-based, global, EU and national water management policies and strategies, within the frameworks of the Green Deal, Water Framework Directive, Just Transition and the Water Action Agenda for UN Sustainable Development Goals. Proposals should show cognisance of appropriate legislation and policy frameworks at national and international levels while addressing policy actions and steering mechanisms needed to foster the paradigm shift to Circular Economy.

Topics:

The general theme of the call is “Water for Circular Economy”.
Research & innovation proposals submitted under the Water4All 2024 Joint Transnational Call are required to address at least one of the following themes:

Topic 1: Enhancement of water circularity in industries.
Topic 2: Urban water circularity.
Topic 3: Resource recovery and valorization.
Topic 4: Economic, environmental and social implications of water reuse and recovered products

Critères d’admission/attribution :

Eligibility of the consortia

To be eligible, research consortia must:

- Each consortium must be composed of a minimum of three eligible partners that request funding from participating Funding Partner Organisations from three different countries.
- In addition to the abovementioned condition, the projects must involve at least two independent legal entities from two different EU Member States or Horizon Europe associated countries as recipients of the financial support.

Applications will be submitted by the coordinator. Each consortium participant will be funded by the Funding Organisation from their country/region participating in the JTC 2024. Participants are therefore subject to eligibility criteria of national/regional funding organisations.

See call document for more details.

However, when the project involves a PhD student, the principal investigator can apply for an additional one year funding in order to complete the four years PhD programme. Since this programme is co-funded by the European Commission, this final year should not be included in the budget submitted to this call.
