The smart tool for EU proposal drafters and grant writers CallforEurope is a consultancy that provides for professional information and assistance on European Policies, Programmes and Public Calls. Our mission is to support transparent knowledge and easy access to all of the opportunities offered by EU Programmes. We think that giving fresh information on such themes is a valid lever for boosting European Union integration.
Our support is intended to: • offer technical information on how to access to and manage EU grants and projects; • make people find new transnational partnerships throughout Europe; • stimulate public debate on how to access to EU funds. Our ambition is to serve as a technical resource center. We want to serve primarily those that usually work on writing applications and
managing projects through European funding. Call them “Euro-drafters” or “Euro-experts”: in any case, their activity demands high specialization and a constant updating on European policies, programs and public calls. Our service is intended for them but also for any private, public and not-for-profit organization interested to European programmes and funds.
If you want more information on our services, please drop a line at info@call-for-europe.com visit us at https://call-for-europe.org subscribe to our newsletter at https://www.call-for-europe.org/newsletter

S+T+ARTS Prize Competition for Social Good What is S+T+ARTS Programme?
S+T+ARTS is an initiative of the European Commission that aims at fostering alliances of science, technology and the arts, that effectively implement a European approach to technological innovation centered on human needs and values. The initiative within the Horizon 2020 research and innovation program was starting from 2015. Currently it is sustained by the STARTS Pillars that represent all the dimensions STARTS works with. Different funded projects offer complementary opportunities and services. The platform STARTS.eu aggregates all the pillars and aims at gathering the whole STARTS Ecosystem, offering specific services and functionalities to develop, strengthen and enlarge the community.
What is the S+T+ARTS Prize about?
The STARTS Prize for Social Good is launched by Nesta Italia in collaboration with Fondazione CRT
and OGR Torino, promoted in collaboration with Ars Electronica. These entities manage a STARTS Reginonal Centre. Throughout Europe, the STARTS Regional Centers promote artists teaming up with technologists capable of imagining a more viable future for European societies, economically, socially and ecologically. The STARTS pillars promote art as a way to re-centre contemporary reflections around humanist innovations: the STARTS Centers thus embrace the mission of facilitating the implementation of the STARTS pillars in diverse European regions.
