Horizon Europe Missions

EU Missions are large-scale initiatives under Horizon Europe designed to tackle some of our greatest societal challenges — including climate change, cancer, ocean and water restoration, soil health, and the creation of climate-neutral and smart cities. Each mission sets clear, time-bound goals that drive coordinated efforts and measurable impact.

By bringing together researchers, policymakers, citizens, and other stakeholders, EU Missions pool the necessary resources to foster innovation and deliver tangible solutions for the benefit of society.

The five EU Missions are:

  1. Adaptation to Climate Change

  2. Cancer

  3. Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities

  4. Soil Deal for Europe

  5. Restore Our Ocean and Waters
