RAMP Joint Transnational Call 2026 supports transnational research consortia with funding for raw materials research and innovation to strengthen supply and circularity for the green and digital transition.
Funder: Research Council of Finland
Due Dates: September 22, 2026 (Pre-proposal, 15:00 CEST) | February 15, 2027 (Full proposal, 15:00 CET)
Funding Amounts: €1.5 million RCF contribution; nearly €40 million across participating funders
Summary: Supports transnational research and innovation across the raw materials value chain for the green and digital transition.
Key Information: Consortia need at least three partners requesting funding from three participating countries, including two EU Member States or associated countries.
The RAMP Joint Transnational Call 2026 is the first joint call of the European Co-Funded Partnership on Raw Materials for the Green and Digital Transition under Horizon Europe. The Research Council of Finland (RCF) participates alongside national and regional funders to support research and innovation across the raw materials value chain.
The call targets resilient primary and secondary raw material supply, efficient material use in design and production, and sustainable product use and reuse. Projects should improve access to raw materials, promote circular economy practices, minimise social and environmental costs, and contribute to industrial development. Proposals are encouraged to connect supply-chain stages, bridge disciplines, engage stakeholders, and address the relevant policy context.
