ProgrammesThe Commission has launched BE READY, a new European Partnership for pandemic preparedness. The aim of the partnership is to strengthen the EU's capacity to anticipate, prevent and respond rapidly to epidemics and pandemics. BE READY focuses on advancing research on emerging and re-emerging pathogens and accelerating the development of diagnostics, treatments and vaccines.
The new partnership has already launched its first Joint Transnational Call (JTC 2026) focusing on 'Advancing knoweldge of host and pathogens dynamics to better combat emerging diseases'.
Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) participates in this call. More information on available funding for researchers based in Flanders and on how to apply is available on the FWO website. Deadline for the submission of pre-proposals is 13 April 2026. Questions on available funding by FWO? Contact europe@fwo.be.
More information on the call, its conditions and how to apply is available on the BE READY dedicated webpage. Interested in applying? Rewatch the information webinar here.

The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
