Disclaimer: 

In September 2024, the Water4All and the DUT Partnerships under Horizon Europe have launched calls for research on  topics that are complementary. Duplication of funding for the same proposal is not allowed, therefore the applicants  must carefully choose the best fit for their proposals based on the scope of each call and their respective research  priorities.  

  • For topics with a stronger water and circularity focus, applying to the Water4All 2024 Joint Transnational Call is  recommended 
  • For proposals with a focus on urban planning and changes in urban water cycle paradigms, applying to the DUT Call  2024 is recommended
