Horizon Europe

As part of the EU-funded Gender-SMART project (H2020) this capacity building session will be organised, to learn how to best integrate the gender dimension into project management and research contents. 

Combining short presentations with hands-on sessions in sub-groups, this activity will briefly introduce the state of the play with regard to gender imbalances in research and academic organizations, discuss the notions of gender blindness and gender bias in knowledge production, and provide practical guidance to enhance participants’ ability to mainstream a gender perspective.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

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.
