CHANSE is the collaborative effort of the HERA and NORFACE research networks of Horizon Europe. CHANSE supports new and innovative research into the workings, meaning and consequences of transformations and innovations in the present digital age, viewed through the lens of social and cultural dynamics. While comparison with or investigation into other regions is not precluded, every project must demonstrate a strong European dimension, i.e. investigating the changes taking place or affecting Europe as a whole, or at the level of a European country, city, community, and so forth.
