The European Commission confirmed the calls and other actions of the second year of the two-year work programmes setting out funding opportunities for 2017. The current update with a budget of €8.5 billion introduces important novelties.
As of the Work Programme 2017, the current Open Research Data Pilot will be extended to cover all thematic areas of Horizon 2020, making open research data the default setting (see infographic on how it will work in practice).

It also includes key actions supporting a forward-looking climate change policy.
