European Commission: Call for applications for the renewal of Mission Boards

On 5 January 2022, the European Commission has launched a call for applications for the selection of new members of the Mission Boards, which are tasked with providing advisory support to the implementation of the five EU missions within the context of Horizon Europe. The Mission Boards resulting from this call will build on the work of their predecessors (in operation until December 2021).

In the composition of the new Mission Boards, the Commission aims to create balanced teams with different profiles. These should cover different sectors such as business, public administration, academia, culture, civic engagement and civil society organisations from across Europe and beyond. Each Mission Board will be composed of up to 15 independent, high-level individuals. Mission Board members should be able to think strategically and analytically, and demonstrate a strong commitment to the missions' success.
 
Applications need to be submitted via the online survey management system EUSurvey (which requires an EU login account).
 
Applicants may indicate their preference for one or more of the Mission Boards, but each person may be appointed as a member of only one Board. Members of previous Mission Boards may reapply.
 
Applications can be submitted until 2 February 2022.
