From Theory to Practice: Mastering Horizon Europe Collaborative Project Proposals

Are you preparing to submit a Horizon Europe collaborative project proposal? Join us for a comprehensive two-part training on writing successful proposals for Horizon Europe's Pillar 2. Whether you are new to the process or looking to refine your skills, this event will equip you with the essential knowledge and practical tools to strengthen your project proposals.

Part 1: Condensed Theoretical Overview (video)

In this pre-recorded video session, our experts will guide you through the three sections of the Horizon Europe Pillar 2 proposal template. You will gain insights into the key requirements, best practices, and strategies to effectively write your proposals. The video will be available for registered participants, with access provided via a password-protected link. Viewing of the video is obligatory before attending the onsite session on 17 June.

Part 2:  Hands-On Training

17 June, 9:15-16:00, on-site in Bern

This in-person session will put theory into practice. Using real proposal scenarios, participants will engage in hands-on exercises that pertain to various parts of the proposal. We will take you through aspects such as AI use in proposal writing, understanding the ‘pathways to impact’ and how to exploit them, and managing the risks and barriers in your proposed work. Expert feedback and peer discussions will help solidify your understanding of the proposal writing process. Please note, attendance at this session is conditional upon viewing of the video (Part 1).
