DESCA Model Consortium Agreement updated
Wed Mar 25 14:43:09 CET 2026
Development of a Simplified Consortium Agreement (DESCA) includes changes regarding, for example, the reallocation of the budget at the end of the project.
The signature of a Consortium Agreement between the participants of a research project is mandatory for most EU research projects. Therefore, the DESCA Core Group has created the model consortium agreement.
DESCA Horizon Europe 2.1 was created by the group composed of EARTO, KoWi, LERU, ANRT, VTT, ZENIT and coordinated by Fraunhofer and the Helmholtz Association. This new version of the model consortium agreement reflects the modifications of August 2025.
