NCP Flanders is conducting a short satisfaction survey to gather valuable feedback and suggestions on the NCP services. The survey is organised into three sections: NCP Flanders assistance, info sessions, and NCP Flanders website & LinkedIn. If you are not familiar with one of these sections, the survey will automatically guide you to the next section. The survey is fully anonymous and will remain open until 24 July 2026. The NCP Flanders team would greatly appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to fill in the survey and provide your opinion via this link. If you would like to get in touch NCP Flanders, please mail to info@ncpflanders.be
The EU CAP Network is organising an in-person brokerage event in Brussels on 5 and 6 November 2026. It is designed to help stakeholders prepare multi-actor proposals for the 2027 Horizon Europe Cluster 6 and Mission Soil calls. A call for expressions of interest is open until 14 August 2026. The thematic areas for possible collaboration include agrobiodiversity and sustainable agricultural practices, resilience and competitiveness in farming systems, climate-smart and clean farming, innovation through Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems, and healthy soils. If you would like to submit your interest in this call, you can do so on this website.
Keeping track of the exact timelines of multiple Horizon Europe and/or Digital Europe calls can be challenging, especially for organisations active in several domains at once. To help you plan ahead, NCP Flanders has developed a new downloadable Call Topic Heatmap.This new Excel-based tool provides a visual overview of when call topics are open across the different subdomains of Horizon Europe and in Digital Europe, helping organisations identify and anticipate peak periods.Each row in the heatmap represents a specific programme or subdomain, while the timeline is organised by week. As new calls open, the number of available topics increases and the colour intensity changes accordingly. The darker the colour, the higher the number of open topics at that moment in time.You can download the call topic heatmap here on the Call Topic Overview Page, available under Tools.
The Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Radiance NCP network has updated and published support material which is available for National Contact Points (NCPs) and applicants. The Radiance Postdoctoral Fellowships Handbook call 2026 was already available and now the Submission Guide for the 2026 call has been published as well. These are valuable resources for proposal writing and submission preparation. The material is available in the online library and handbooks sections of the Radiance MSCA webpage. The Radiance Doctoral Networks Handbook and Submission Guide call 2026 is foreseen for publication by the end of September.
The European Commission, in collaboration with the ERA Forum, has published an updated version of the 'Living Guidelines on the responsible use of generative AI in research'. The guidelines were developed to address the complex landscape of different guidance documents issued by various research funding and research performing organisations, to provide one set of guidelines for researchers, research organisations, and research funding organisations. Originally published in March 2024, the guidelines have now been updated for the second time, to respond to the fast technological developments in the field. The research community is encouraged to contribute their views on how to enhance future versions through the feedback form. Background: The ERA Forum is a platform for dialogue and cooperation among representatives from EU Member States, countries associated to Horizon Europe, the European Commission, the Committee of the Regions, the Economic and Social Committee, and stakeholders from research and innovation communities

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-INFRA-2022-TECH-01) and running from 2023 to 2026, the ANERIS project aims to tackle the rapid loss of ocean biodiversity. The project’s main objective is to develop, test and implement the next generation of scientific instrumentation tools and methods for sensing and monitoring marine-life. Another key concept of the project is the introduction of the concept of Operational Marine Biology (OMB) as a biodiversity information system. The project consortium consists of 25 partners from 13 countries. Read more about the project and the contribution of Flemish partner VLIZ in this testimonial.
