ProgrammesThe European Partnership for Pandemic Preparedness BE READY, coordinated by ANRS Emerging Infectious Diseases (ANRS MIE/Inserm), officially started its activities on 1 January 2026.
Later this month (January 2026), the Partnership will launch its first Joint Transnational Call for Proposals for multinational interdisciplinary research projects. The topic of the 2026 Call is Advancing knowledge of host and pathogen dynamics to better combat emerging diseases. The call will support innovative, collaborative, interdisciplinary and transnational research projects aiming for a better understanding of the pandemic potential of emerging pathogens, elucidating the pathophysiology induced by these pathogens, and developing innovative medical countermeasures.
Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) plans to participate in this call. More information on available funding for researchers based in Flanders and on how to apply will become available on the FWO website once the call is launched. Questions on available funding by FWO? Contact europe@fwo.be.

The European Innovation Council has launched a call to recruit independent experts of diverse innovative defence and dual-use technologies (as eg. maritime, medical, drones, financial expertise, ..). It is important for the EIC to have a solid batch of experts with a balanced national diversity. Note that, as a requirement and due to security sens... read more
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.
