Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes MSCA

Yesterday a joint statement ‘We need much more MSCA!’ was published. The currently 13 organisations that endorse the statement lament the lack of MSCA in Mario Draghi’s report the Future of European Competitiveness and the Mission Letters for the proposed Executive Vice-President for People, Skills and Preparedness Roxana Mînzatu (letter), and Commissioner for Startups, Research, and Innovation Ekaterina Zaharieva (letter). In the statement emphasis is laid on the lasting impact of the programme on the careers of researchers, research, doctoral and postdoctoral training in Europe and the universities, research institutions and non-academic organisations. They urge the European Commission, Parliament and Council to recognise the MSCA's invaluable contributions by increasing its budget, while maintaining its purely bottom-up research character.

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.
