Euratom aims to support research and training activities in the nuclear field, with a focus on continuous improvement of nuclear safety, security and radiation protection, maintenance and development of nuclear expertise and fusion energy development. The Euratom program complements the objectives and content of Horizon Europe.
The Euratom program also offers funding opportunities for health-related topics, e.g. on radiation therapy and radiation protection.
Digital Europe, with a total budget of 7.6 billion euros, supports the digital transformation throughout Europe.
