ProgrammesThe 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

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
