Interoperable Europe Act enters into force

Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes Deployment: Best use of technologies

The Interoperable Europe Act entered into force on 11 April 2024. It aims to better connect public services for people and businesses by facilitating cross-border data exchange and accelerate the digital transformation of the public sector.

The Act is essential to reaching the objectives of the EU's digital decade, such as having 100% of key public services available online by 2030. Examples of such services include mutual recognition of academic diplomas or professional qualifications, exchanges of vehicle data for road safety, access to social security and health data, the exchange of information related to taxation, customs, public tender accreditation, digital driving licenses, commercial registers.
Interoperability is a core feature of a functioning Digital Single Market and contributes to a more effective implementation of digital features of public policies, from justice to health to transport.

More information on the Interoperable Europe Act can be found in the press release of the European Commission.

Stakeholders planning to submit project proposals related to the Interoperable Europe Act, such as the currently open Digital Europe call "Innovative and Connected Public Administrations", are strongly recommended to demonstrate awareness with the content of the legislation.

YoPA – Youth-centered participatory action for a healthy lifestyle

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.
