Programmes SecurityWhen will the calls open ?
The negotiations regarding the work programme for cluster 3 (civil security for society) have been finalized and the formal adoption procedure is now ongoing. This process should be completed in the next couple of weeks.
The publication of the first calls is foreseen for the 30th of June and the European Commission will explain all the topics more in detail during an online event. The date of this webinar will probably be the 30th of June or the 1st of July but this still has to be confirmed.
When do you need to submit the proposals ?
For most calls the first deadline for submission will be on the 23rd of November. Only for the destination on increased cybersecurity this will be the 21st of October.

Only for stakeholders located in Flanders
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.
