The European Commission and the European Education and Culture Executive Agency have announced the results of the 2026 Jean Monnet Call for Proposals. Among the successful applications from Higher Education Institutions in Ukraine, 40 projects were selected for funding out of 747 applications: 38 Modules and two Chairs.
Overall, 2,223 applications were submitted to the call, and 327 projects were recommended for funding. The top three non-associated countries are Ukraine (40), Albania (18), and the United States (10).
Jean Monnet Actions focus on teaching, learning, research, and debates on various aspects of the European Union and EU integration. New projects will help shape and develop a generation of European integrators in education and science, and will support Ukraine on its path as a candidate for EU membership.
The projects selected for funding cover a variety of EU activities and policy topics, including: circular economy, economic cohesion, inclusion, green deal, green recovery and energy saving, climate issues, land management, biotechnology and green competences, sustainable development, digital transformation, political and information literacy, digital security, as well as other topics.
In total, 29 higher education institutions from Bila Tserkva, Zhytomyr, Zaporizhzhia, Irpin, Dnipro, Kyiv, Lutsk, Lviv, Mykolaiv, Ostroh, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Ternopil, Kharkiv, and Chernivtsi will begin the implementation of new Jean Monnet projects to carry out research and teaching of European studies in Ukraine in 2026.
Between 2021 and 2026, Ukrainian higher education institutions were awarded funding to implement 313 Jean Monnet projects; 130 projects have already been completed. The project database is available at the Erasmus+ Projects Results Platform.
Erasmus+ is the European Union Programme that aims to support the educational, professional and personal development of people in education, training, youth and sport, in Europe and beyond, through lifelong learning. It provides opportunities for learning mobility, projects and partnerships, and policy development and cooperation.
The Programme is inclusive for people of all ages and backgrounds, and almost 40 calls for proposals are open to different types of organisations from Ukraine.
