The first four COVID-19 call topics are published on the Funding and Tender portal (keyword covid). The opening of the calls is postponed from 13 April (as was previously communicated) to 15 April, due to technical problems with the submission system on the Funding and Tender portal. However the necessary information and documents are already available on the portal. 

Two topics are taken up in the Health work programme:

- HORIZON-HLTH-2021-CORONA-01-01: vaccine & therapeutic clinical trials to boost COVID-19 prevention and treatment

- HORIZON-HLTH-2021-CORONA-01-02: cohorts united against COVID-19 variants of concern

Two topics are included in the Research infrastructure work programme:

- HORIZON-INFRA-2021-EMERGENCY-01: FAIR and open data sharing in support to European preparedness for COVID-19 and other infectious diseases

- HORIZON-INFRA-2021-EMERGENCY-02: infrastructure services for rapid research responses to Covid-19 and other infectious disease epidemics

The recording of the dedicated information webinar on these four calls is available here https://webcast.ec.europa.eu/horizon-europe-focused-actions-in-research-infrastructures-and-health-to-target-covid-19-variants

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
