As of 1 January 2024, the United Kingdom becomes an associated country to Horizon Europe, including the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA).
Organisations based in the UK will be able to participate as beneficiaries in the same terms as those based in the European Union and countries already associated to Horizon Europe.
This includes the following schemes under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions:
- Postdoctoral Fellowships
- Doctoral Networks
- Co-funding of regional, national and international doctoral and postdoctoral programmes (COFUND)
- MSCA and Citizens, including the European Researchers’ Night
- Other coordination and support actions
Researchers from the UK will continue to be able to participate in the programme, which is open to top researchers from all over the world.
Under the previous EU framework programme for research and innovation, Horizon 2020, the United Kingdom was one of the best performing countries in the MSCA.
