New infosheets: Ethics Appraisal Process and Ownership Contral Declaration

Published on | 3 months ago

Programmes Horizon Europe   HorizonEU L+F   Digital Europe   Defence  

Ethics and security play an important role in applications for projects under Horizon Europe, Digital Europe and the EU Defence Fund.

Consortia submitting proposals are expected to self-reflect on ethics issues, followed by screenings and follow-ups by the European Commission.

For certain calls under the three programmes, participation can be restricted to legal entities established in and/or controlled by Member States or in specified eligible third countries for duly justified security reasons. In such cases, participants are requested to submit mandatory Ownership Control Declarations along with their application.

NCP Flanders has published two new infosheets to guide applicants through the ethics appraisal process and the requirements of the Ownership Control Declaration.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
