Beneficiaries can consult the
Guidelines for Management of the MSCA Special Needs in Horizon Europe Grants here. Beneficiaries can apply at any
time during the implementation of the MSCA project:
“The support will be granted based
on the request submitted by the coordinator/beneficiary of the MSCA grant to
the granting authority. Any beneficiary of a running Horizon 2020 or Horizon
Europe MSCA grant with a recruited researcher or (for RISE/SE) seconded staff
member who has special needs can submit a request at any time during the
implementation of the MSCA grant. The request should contain a description
of the special needs, the type of support and the budget requested.
Note: The requested special needs
support is limited to a maximum of EUR 60,000 per recruited researcher/staff
member. If the amount needed to cover the special needs of the concerned
researcher/staff member is higher than EUR 60,000, the remainder shall be
covered from other sources.
The MSCA beneficiary
shall submit the request, based on the template provided below under Annex I,
to the Project Officer via the Formal Notification system of the Portal.
The request shall be submitted for each researcher/staff member with special
needs. If there is more than one researcher/staff member with special needs
recruited/seconded by the beneficiary in the framework of the same MSCA grant
agreement, a separate request needs to be submitted for each of the concerned
researchers/staff members.”
