Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions

Developing talents, advancing research

MSCA4Ukraine webinar and information day

This webinar officially presented the second call for applications under MSCA4Ukraine and provided information to participants on how to apply.

The European Commission announced in April a top up of €10 million for the MSCA4Ukraine initiative, supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions under Horizon Europe. 

The funding will allow supporting additional researchers displaced from Ukraine through a second call for applications. This webinar will officially present the call and provide information to participants on how to apply.

The event will be introduced by Normunds Popens, Deputy Director General, Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture, European Commission and Igor Taranov, Head of Department, Horizon Europe Office in Ukraine. 

The launch will be followed by a dedicated information session for potential applicant host organisations and researchers from Ukraine. 

The consortium partners and speakers from the European Commission and European Research Executive Agency will provide practical information on eligibility, application and evaluation processes. 

Participants are encouraged to engage actively and ask questions throughout the event. 

The call documents, eligibility criteria and application forms will be published early June. Further information can be found on the MSCA4Ukraine website.
