The Belgian Association for Public Health's Symposium this year is all about working together on the challenges and future of public health in Belgium.
The morning of the symposium will be organized around four plenary sessions and a debate during which Belgian and international speakers will discuss public health challenges in Belgium and Europe. The afternoon will be structured around various workshops led by experts. Several networking opportunities will also be planned during the day.
One of the workshops on the agenda is about 'Funding for public health research', with with experts from BELSPO, FNRS, FWO, Horizon Europe Cluster 1 Health programme and the Belgian Health Care Knowledge Center (KCE).

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
