Society

The EU is a unique blend of economic growth and social protection that values democracy, human rights, gender equality, and cultural diversity.

This model is constantly evolving and facing multidimensional challenges.

Horizon 2020, the EU's Research and Innovation funding program from 2014 to 2020, allocated significant resources to promote understanding and provide solutions for inclusive, innovative, and reflective European societies.
Building on these achievements, Horizon Europe, the current research and innovation funding program, will focus on democratic governance, cultural heritage, and social and economic transformations.
These priorities are interconnected and address the most pressing social, political, economic, and cultural concerns and expectations of European citizens.
