This funding call under Horizon Europe focuses on the intersection of ocean health, climate change, biodiversity, and socio-economic systems. It seeks innovative research projects addressing critical areas of ocean change, including ocean acidification, tipping points, and emerging anthropogenic threats. Applicants are encouraged to develop science-based solutions, integrate multidisciplinary perspectives, and support EU and international policy goals for climate neutrality and ocean sustainability. Research will contribute to global assessments and frameworks such as the Paris Agreement, Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, and the UN Decade of Ocean Science.
Opening: 06-05-2025
Deadline(s): 04-09-2025

This funding opportunity represents a pre-agreed draft that has not yet been officially approved by the European Commission. The final, approved version is expected to be published in the first quarter of 2025. This draft is provided for informational purposes and may be used to preliminarily form consortia and develop project ideas, but it is offered without any guarantees or warranties.
Expected Outcome
• Improved understanding of ocean integrity under various scenarios.
• Enhanced monitoring and modeling of ocean acidification and its impacts.
• Advanced science on emerging ocean threats.
• Contributions to global frameworks like the IPCC and SDGs.
• Evidence-based tools for regional and global ocean governance.
Scope
• Investigate ocean tipping points, multi-stressor impacts, and emission scenarios.
• Advance understanding of ocean acidification and associated planetary boundaries.
• Study short-, medium-, and long-term impacts of anthropogenic activities on ocean health.
• Develop integrated models for ocean and climate systems.
• Support policy recommendations for sustainable ocean governance.
