Unlocking the potential of citizen action for nature protection and restoration
Overview
The Horizon Europe call, HORIZON-CL6-2026-01-BIODIV-03, titled "Unlocking the Potential of Citizen Action for Nature Protection and Restoration," offers funding for innovative, citizen-led approaches to biodiversity conservation and restoration. The main focus is to engage citizens actively in nature conservation efforts, in line with the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. This competitive program announces a total budget of €10 million for 2026, with an expected allocation of €5 million for each of the two projects to be funded.
Eligible applicants include a range of organizations such as research institutions, SMEs, local communities, NGOs, and other legal entities from EU member states, EEA countries, and associated countries under Horizon Europe. The program encourages consortium formations involving diverse expertise, particularly social sciences and humanities, to ensure inclusive citizen engagement.
The funding operates under a lump sum grant modality, meaning that a predetermined amount will be awarded irrespective of actual expenditures, simplifying financial management. The application process involves two stages: the first stage requires an outline application by April 16, 2026, and successful candidates will be invited to submit full proposals by September 23, 2026. Proposals should explore innovative ways to develop, test, and market citizen-led conservation tools, focusing on practical, scalable solutions.
Projects must aim to establish new business opportunities related to nature conservation, addressing issues such as species conservation, pest management, and the creation of digital tools for public engagement. The evaluation process will assess proposals based on excellence, impact, and implementation quality, and the competition is expected to be fierce with success rates likely below 20%.
Co-funding is not mandatory but is encouraged. Proposals demonstrating additional resources from partners are viewed favorably during evaluations. The call opens on February 12, 2026, inviting diverse collaboration to foster citizen engagement in Europe's biodiversity goals, ultimately enhancing ecosystem restoration and contributing to climate mitigation efforts.

Detail
This is a summary of several Horizon Europe calls for proposals related to biodiversity, circular bioeconomy, and zero pollution, all under the Cluster 6 (Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment) for the year 2026. All calls follow a two-stage submission process. The planned opening date for these calls is February 12, 2026. The deadline for the first stage is April 16, 2026, at 17:00 Brussels time, and the deadline for the second stage is September 23, 2026, at 17:00 Brussels time. Eligible costs will take the form of a lump sum as defined in the Decision of 7 July 2021 authorising the use of lump sum contributions under the Horizon Europe Programme – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (2021-2027) – and in actions under the Research and Training Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community (2021-2025).

Breakdown
Eligible Applicant Types: The opportunity is particularly relevant for SMEs, but other types of applicants are not explicitly excluded. The call aims to engage diverse local communities and/or indigenous people. It also seeks the involvement of SSH experts, institutions. Therefore, eligible applicant types could include SMEs, research institutions, local communities, NGOs, and other relevant organizations.
Funding Type: The primary financial mechanism is a grant, specifically a HORIZON Lump Sum Grant. The actions are HORIZON Innovation Actions and HORIZON Research and Innovation Actions.
Consortium Requirement: The information does not explicitly state whether a single applicant or a consortium is required. However, given the scope and the encouragement of engaging with diverse local communities, indigenous people, and the need for SSH expertise, a consortium is likely beneficial, if not implicitly required. The partner search announcements also suggest that collaboration is encouraged.
Beneficiary Scope (Geographic Eligibility): The opportunity is part of the Horizon Europe program. While Annex B of the Work Programme General Annexes (mentioned in the conditions) defines eligible countries, the text also mentions that non-EU/non-Associated Countries may have specific provisions for funding. Therefore, the geographic eligibility includes EU member states, associated countries, and potentially some non-EU/non-associated countries as specified in the Horizon Europe Programme Guide.
Target Sector: The program targets the biodiversity and environmental sector, specifically focusing on nature conservation and restoration. It also involves elements of social innovation, digital tools, and potentially the development of toolkits and services. The program also encourages synergies with activities under New European Bauhaus. The call also targets circular bioeconomy and zero pollution.
Mentioned Countries: The opportunity is a European Union initiative, so EU member states are implicitly included. The text also refers to non-EU/non-Associated Countries, and mentions the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, which is an international agreement. Therefore, the regions and countries mentioned are: EU, non-EU/non-Associated Countries, and countries party to the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
Project Stage: The projects are expected to explore innovative approaches, develop and test new ways to restore and conserve nature, and develop and market citizen toolkits. This suggests that the project stage should be at the development, testing, and demonstration phases, potentially leading to commercialization for some projects.
