As the European Union is currently facing many complex challenges, the role of social sciences and humanities (SSH) is crucial to understand rapid and structural transformations of the European societies and to prepare evidence-based policy responses.

To foster the role of SSH, the EU issued several programs and grant schemes supporting researchers, innovators and civil organizations engaged in social sciences and humanities, including a special place for SSH in Horizon Europe, the biggest research and innovation program of the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social Sciences and Humanities in Horizon Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The role of SSH is reflected in the foundations of Horizon Europe and derives from the general structure of the Framework Programme, stipulated in the art 4. of the Regulation (EU) 2021\/695<\/strong><\/a> of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 April 2021 establishing Horizon Europe, stating that \u201cSocial sciences and humanities (SSH) shall play an important role across all clusters\u201d<\/strong>. The document defines the general structure of Horizon Europe Framework Programme and was agreed jointly by the Commission, Member States and Parliament in September 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Horizon Europe program line \u2013 Pilar 2. Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness \u2013 is devoted to applied research. The social sciences and humanities were given a special place within Horizon Europe. Firstly, under Pilar 2. of HE Cluster 2. Culture, Creativity and Inclusive society<\/strong> was established, focusing on three areas at the very heart of SSH research: democracy, cultural heritage, and social transformation<\/strong>. Secondly, a strong emphasis on integrating social sciences and humanities<\/strong> <\/a>across the entire program was implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clustere 2: Cluture, Creativity and Inclusive Society<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Under the Pillar 2 of Horizon Europe, Cluster 2 “Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society<\/a>“<\/strong> focusses on challenges to democratic governance, cultural heritage and the creative economy, as well as social and economic transformations. The cluster aims to strengthen European democratic values, including rule of law and fundamental rights, safeguarding our cultural heritage, and promoting socio-economic transformations that contribute to inclusion and growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The expected impacts of this cluster are contained in the Horizon Europe strategic plan.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
