The European Union is currently setting the course for the next Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (FP10) from 2028 onwards. The DFG welcomes together with the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK) and the Leibniz Association the EU Commission’s decision to maintain a standalone programme of research and innovation funding. However, they call to improve this programme in the further legislative process.
