The aim of the GENDERACTIONplus conference Towards new Horizons: Inclusive Gender Equality in FP10 and Beyond is to review the progress made in advancing inclusive gender equality in research and innovation in the EU, assess advances in policy coordination accomplished through GENDERACTIONplus Communities of Practice, and engage in a 'whole system’ dialogue with policy makers, research funders, ERA stakeholder organisations, ERA gender equality officers, and scholars, to discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead.
More information on the conference including the programme and registration form is available in the announcement on the GENDERACTIONplus project webpage. The onsite registrations close on 31 January 2025.

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.
