Since its association with the Horizon 2020 Programme (EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation) in 2016, Tunisia is multiplying its efforts to improve the participation of its institutions in this Programme.
To this purpose, a special Programme Management Unit Research and Innovation (PMURI), acting as Directorate-General, was created by decree n. 2016-955 at the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MHESR).
As part of its mission, an Information Day covering Horizon 2020 funding opportunities is held on 6th March 2018. The event brings together researchers from national leading research centres and practitioners interested in the H2020 open calls and the Work Programme 2018-2020.
