ProgrammesThe ERC Scientific Council has listened to the concerns from members of the research community about the recent announcement on changes to the resubmission rules. The changes, intended to manage the surge in demand for ERC grants, pertain to calls for proposals in the forthcoming 2027 ERC Work Programme.
The Scientific Council has decided to readjust some of the announced changes related to resubmissions. Its response to the community is set out in a letter signed by ERC President Maria Leptin on behalf of the Scientific Council, published on the ERC website today. In a footnote of the published letter the adjustments can be found.
The Scientific Council will explain their thinking and responses to the proposals from the community in a separate document to be published on the ERC website in due course.

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.
