Overview
The International Mobility Award is designed to support Canadian faculty and eligible small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the early stages of consortium-building and proposal development under Pillar II of Horizon Europe. It provides short-term funding to facilitate travel and in-person engagements with European collaborators, addressing a well-recognized barrier to meaningful participation in one of the world’s largest research funding frameworks.
Value
Awards will be valued at up to $5,000 CAD per traveller (maximum $10,000 per award).
Eligibility
Applications must be submitted by two travellers, either a pair of faculty members from different post-secondary institutions or a faculty member and a representative from a Canadian industry SME. Applications must not include more than two travellers. There are no restrictions on academic disciplines or industry sectors; however, fields must align with Horizon Europe calls for proposals and/or corresponding European research consortia.
