Why Attend

SSH proposal writing is its own craft.

Cluster 2 evaluators are not the same experts who evaluate STEM-heavy Horizon Europe calls. The expectations around vocabulary, evidence, societal pathways, stakeholder participation, and impact framing are fundamentally different.

This live 3.5-hour workshop helps you shape your proposal specifically for the CL2 evaluation mindset — with practical co-creation work built directly around your own stakeholders, consortium ideas, and draft sections.

You leave with:

• A stronger topic fit

• Evaluator-aligned SSH language

• A practical stakeholder strategy

• A clearer sustainability pathway

• A section-by-section review of your proposal draft

• A free in-depth evaluation before submission

This is live proposal work, not a lecture.

Is This For You?

A good fit if you are:

• An SSH research group, museum, NGO, or creative SME preparing a Cluster 2 proposal

• A coordinator or partner organisation with at least a target topic identified

• Ready to bring outline content for the Excellence, Impact, and Implementation sections

Not the right fit if:

• You have not identified stakeholders yet

• You do not yet have draft material to work from

In that case, the introductory webinar is the better starting point.
