MSCA

The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) in collaboration with the Danish Presidency of the Council of the European Union organises a High-Level Conference to explore how academia can attract and retain the brightest minds and shape the future of research in Europe. Are European universities ready to meet the aspirations of early-career researchers? 

Bringing together more than 200 people, and attracting the most relevant stakeholders, such as early career researchers, policymakers, university leaders, industry representatives, and other socio-economic actors, the conference will create a space for interactive discussions on the purpose-driven university, working culture, and intersectoral mobility.

Registration will open for onsite and online participation in April 2025. More information about the registration, conference programme, MSCA Falling Walls Lab Pitch competition, testimonials from 10 researchers from Danish universities and practical details is available on the website of the conference.

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.
