🇪🇺 The Next Generation Internet (NGI) programme, vital for Europe’s digital sovereignty, is missing from Horizon Europe’s 2025 draft.
Since 2020, NGI has funded over 500 projects, including Castopod, supporting free software and digital commons.
Its removal threatens innovation, collaboration, and the sustainability of Europe’s open-source ecosystem.
NGI has proven essential for fostering technological independence and interoperability.
