UPLIFT Urban PoLicy Innovation to address inequality with and for Future generaTions

Coordinator: VAROSKUTATAS (METROPOLITAN RESEARCHINSTITUTE) KFT (HU)

UPLIFT seeks to establish an innovative approach to urban policy design for reducing socio-economic inequalities. It acknowledges that policies aiming to reduce inequalities are often ineffective, as they do not respond properly to the strategies and behaviours of vulnerable households.

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

EU contribution: €3.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3.5 years from 2020-01-01 to 2023-06-30.
