The 5th European Mission Network (EMiN) Meeting is a digital networking event organized by the TRAMI project. This meeting is a platform for professionals and interested individuals to collaborate and exchange ideas on the Horizon Europe missions and the associated R&I policy. The focus for this meeting is 'Citizen Engagement', a fundamental aspect of mission implementation. The objective is to delve deeper into how stakeholders approach citizen involvement in the execution of the Horizon Europe missions. The meeting will serve as a forum for sharing experiences and successful strategies on involving citizens in the practical aspects of the missions. It also provides a platform for discussion on improving citizen involvement in EU missions and the role this involvement plays in achieving objectives.

YoPA – Youth-centered participatory action for a healthy lifestyle

The YoPA project, ‘a youth-centred preventive action approach towards co-created implementation of socially and physically activating environmental interventions’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project addresses the multifaceted challenges of physical inactivity and health inequalities through a unique participatory approach. The project places teenagers between 12 and 18 years old in vulnerable situations at the forefront of the intervention process. The Institute of Tropical Medicine is a partner in the project and will conduct a Realist Evaluation to understand how youth co-creation contributes to improved adolescent health and well-being in four cities in Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria and South Africa.  By integrating its results and sharing its approach in an open access Toolbox, ITM aims to contribute to fostering sustainable, youth-led solutions for healthier urban environments.
