Programmes Joint Research Center

The Joint Research Center (JRC) has launched a call for Expression of Interest (EoI) for the preparatory action advancing evidence-informed policy at regional and local level. This action aims at building capacity for evidence-informed policymaking at local and regional level. It supports networking initiative to share practices, methods and instruments for evidence-informed policymaking at subnational level and focuses on topics of relevance to regions and cities, in line with the Commission policy priorities.

The expression of interest can be submitted until 17 September 2021 by regions and cities in the EU, either by themselves or as part of a network to organise:

  • Innovation camps and participatory events, focusing on policy topics related to the six broad priorities of the current Commission, particularly on the Green and Digital Transitions and Recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic; or
  • Networking initiatives on issues of common concern, in order to boost interregional collaboration;

More information on the modalities and selection criteria can be found here.

ERC grants awarded to professor Inez Germeys

Professor Inez Germeys leads the Center for Contextual Psychiatry at KU Leuven, which is a large multi-disciplinary research group focusing on the interaction between the person and the environment in the development of psychopathology. She has received a European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator grant (INTERACT) and Proof of Concept grant (IMPACT). With these grants professor Germeys and her team researched a new mobile self-management therapy for patients with a psychotic disorder. The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Daily Life (ACT-DL) was further developed for the clinical environment. In line with that the Horizon 2020 IMMERSE project aims to thoroughly evaluate strategies, processes, and outcomes of implementing a digital mobile mental health solution.
