CL2 Culture & Creativity 2026: 50 Grants, 24 Topics — Find Yours

Live Webinar · 24 June 2026

24 topics. Around 50 funded projects. One of the largest Horizon Europe calls in 2026.

Yet museums, NGOs, SSH faculties, and creative SMEs regularly miss funding opportunities because they assume Horizon Europe is designed only for STEM organisations.

It is not.

This practical 90-minute webinar shows you where cultural and creative organisations fit inside Cluster 2, how evaluators assess co-creation methodology, and what kind of consortium structure consistently performs well in scoring.

With the 23 September 2026 deadline approaching, this session gives you the clarity needed to decide whether to apply — and how to position your organisation competitively.

Why Attend

Cluster 2 Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society remains one of the most misunderstood areas of Horizon Europe funding.

Many strong organisations never apply because they misunderstand:

• Eligibility requirements

• Consortium expectations

• Co-creation scoring

• The role of SSH and cultural-sector actors

This webinar explains:

• Which destination aligns with your organisation

• What evaluators mean by “co-creation”

• How cultural-sector organisations are assessed

• The consortium structures that strengthen proposals

You will leave with a clearer understanding of where your organisation fits — and how to prepare a competitive application before the September deadline.
