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).

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
