ProgrammesMid-September 2026, the PRISM project will launch an open call for proposals (cascade funding) on paediatric multinational investigator-initiated clinical studies. PRISM will select, according to a two-stage procedure, pilot paediatric clinical studies with the objective to provide a comprehensive, end-to-end support for multinational investigator-initiated studies conducted in 3 to 6 countries in Europe and Canada.
Eligible projects include pragmatic comparative effectiveness trials, optimisation studies, repurposing trials or observational studies in any disease area except cancer and rare diseases.
The deadline for Letters of Intent will be in mid-December 2026. Short-listed projects will get support from the PRISM consortium during the design and planning of the full application.
Stay tuned for more information, including on how to apply on the PRISM website.
Background: Funded under Horizon Europe, the Paediatric clinical Research Infrastructure Service Model (PRISM) project is a European consortium coordinated by ECRIN bringing together 23 key stakeholders from Europe and Canada. The project aims to transform paediatric clinical research by creating a coordinated, transnational ecosystem of experienced infrastructures and service organisations.

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.
