Call content
short description | Proposals should address the entire data life cycle from data generation/collection to the final use and disposal/deletion of data (especially when required by applicable legislation, for example the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). |
Call objectives | Proposals should build on existing and emerging standards, models and architectures and complement/expand them as necessary in view of interoperability of systems and portability of data, especially between sectors, between private and public sectors and between different communities/constituencies of actors, including consideration of cybersecurity issues and analysing the use and re-use potential, especially in view of use of data across sectors. Envisaged architectures and systems should enable correct allocation and enforcement of data-related rights, obligations and responsibilities across the life cycle. Proposals should address relevant human language issues at all stages of data life cycle, addressing the social and cultural factors as necessary. Systems and approaches should be able to process human-generated and human-related data (e.g. speech, text, images) and put data into context (including cultural, linguistic and social context). Likewise, the seamless integration of “human in the loop” (whenever full automation is not possible/desirable) should be considered and implemented where applicable. To achieve this, proposals should consider multidisciplinary research and involve all necessary competences in the consortium. Proposed actions should build on or seek collaboration with existing projects and develop synergies with other relevant European, national or regional initiatives, funding programmes and platforms. Based on an analysis of cross-fertilisation potential of data re-use, the proposal should include use cases or pilots addressing or involving at least three different common European Data spaces and/or related ecosystems. In particular, they should create links with the Data Spaces support centre funded under the Digital Europe programme, and work in close collaboration with the emerging Common European data spaces in order to ensure interoperability and coordination of data architectures. Proposals should build on existing standards or contribute to standardisation. Interoperability for data sharing should be addressed, in line with the European Interoperability Framework (EIF), and contributing to open, standardized and trusted federated concepts, enabling cross-domain data sharing and data markets. This topic implements the co-programmed European Partnership on AI, data and robotics. read more |

Project Partnership | To be eligible for funding, applicants must be established in one of the following countries:
Only legal entities forming a consortium are eligible to participate in actions provided that the consortium includes, as beneficiaries, three legal entities independent from each other and each established in a different country as follows:
Any legal entity, regardless of its place of establishment, including legal entities from non-associated third countries or international organisations (including international European research organisations) is eligible to participate (whether it is eligible for funding or not), provided that the conditions laid down in the Horizon Europe Regulation have been met, along with any other conditions laid down in the specific call topic. A ‘legal entity’ means any natural or legal person created and recognised as such under national law, EU law or international law, which has legal personality and which may, acting in its own name, exercise rights and be subject to obligations, or an entity without legal personality.
