The European Commission and three Brazilian funding agencies; the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), the Funding Agency for Studies and Projects (FINEP) and the Brazilian National Council of State Funding Agencies (CONFAP) signed an Administrative Arrangement on the mechanisms to support Brazilian participation in Horizon Europe (2021-2027) collaborative projects, Partnerships and Missions. This comes under the Agreement for Scientific and Technological Cooperation between the European Community and the Federative Republic of Brazil.

The Administrative Arrangement aims to facilitate the co-funding of Horizon Europe collaborative activities set up by the three Brazilian funding agencies and it establishes the operational steps necessary to support other collaborative activities such as twinning of projects and the launch of coordinated calls, as well as actions to enhance mutual knowledge and awareness.
