Enhancing EU R&I Horizon Europe

The European Commission has launched a call for evidence to help shape the first action plan for women in research, innovation and start-ups. The EU’s action plan will address persistent gender gaps and promote diversity, equality and inclusiveness in the European Research Area (ERA). The plan aims to make the ERA the world’s most attractive place for women to work in research, innovation and startups by 2030. This initiative is aligned with the Choose Europe campaign, promoting the continent's research environment, quality of life and dedication to diversity and inclusion. The call is open to contributions from citizens, businesses, policymakers, academics and civil society organisations. It is open until 23 February 2026 on the Have Your Say portal.

EITHOS - European Identity Theft Observatory System

The EITHOS project, funded under Horizon Europe Cluster 3 call “Online identity theft is countered”, aims to develop a “European Identity Theft Observatory System” (EITHOS). The system will provide easy access to information and intelligence about previous and current identity theft related trends to empower EU citizens, Law Enforcements Agencies (LEAs), and policy makers to further contribute to the prevention, detection, and investigation of crimes related to online identity theft. The Cyber and Data Security Lab (CDSL), part of the Law, Science, Technology and Society (LSTS) Research Group at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), is one of the 12 partners in the EITHOS consortium, contributing its vast expertise on legal aspects of data protection, cybersecurity and information security law and policy.
