The list is built from the European Commission's public Funding & Tenders Portal search service and refreshed every Monday. Calls whose deadlines have passed are removed automatically, even if the portal still flags them as open. “Open” means you can submit now; “forthcoming” means the call has been announced but is not yet open. Budgets are the indicative topic budgets published by the Commission. Always read the official call documents before applying.
