Overview of all Framework Programmes

The EU Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation (FPRI) are the main instrument used by the European Union (EU) to implement its common science and technology policy. FPRIs date back to the 1950s.

The ninth programme generation «Horizon Europe» began in 2021. Over the years, FPRI budgets have continually increased while their thematic priorities have changed in response to the EU's political needs. Below is an overview of the development of the FPRI from their origins to today.
