The regions of Europe (EU) and Latin America-Caribbean (LAC) are closely linked by a common research area. The EU-LAC Interest Group, a network of 29 funding organizations from both regions, actively supports this process by promoting bi-regional cooperation in science, technology and innovation.

The aim of the funding call is to generate solutions for global challenges in the areas of biodiversity, energy, health and open science through bi-regional, multilateral research activities and to contribute to tapping the enormous research and innovation policy potential of the EU-LAC research area. The mutual gain in knowledge and exchange of results resulting from the cooperation should optimize the provision of knowledge in the participating countries in order to enable joint solutions to global challenges.
