International programs

Horizon Europe is an ambitious 7-year program of the European Union in the field of research and innovation in education and science. The EU program aims to consolidate the success achieved by the "Horizon 2020" program. To overcome the crisis caused by the spread of COVID-19, the program envisages a 50% increase in funding for science in the European Union over 2021-2027. The European Commission has formulated 5 main directions for the implementation of the program's strategic goals:

  • adaptation to climate change, including the transformation of society
  • the problem of cancer
  • smart cities and cities without climate impact
  • oceans, marine, coastal and inland waters
  • soil and nutrition

  • Jobs exist, but so do skills shortages and low employability of graduates
  • Growing demands for highly skilled jobs
  • Global competition for talent: internationalization of education
  • Enormous expansion of learning offerings and learning potential of ICT
  • Complementarity between formal, informal and non-formal learning
  • Demand for closer links with the global labor market
