The European Commission is still looking for independent experts for evaluation of proposals for EU funding and for other activities such as monitoring, programme evaluation and policy development.

Interested candidates are invited to file their application online at the "Participant Portal". In addition to researchers and academics, the European Commission is aiming to substantially increase the number of specialists from the commercial and business communities.

Participation as an expert allows a good insight into the processes of evaluation and can thus be useful for future own applications.

Women are underrepresented at the moment and therefore particularly encouraged to register as experts.

Independent experts who registered under the Seventh Framework Programme are invited to declare their interest in being considered for Horizon 2020 assignments and update their area of expertise in line with the new set of Horizon 2020 specialist fields.
