The NCP_WIDERA.NET factsheet ‘Key Facts on Knowledge Valorisation (KV) in the European Research Area (ERA)’ presents key information on KV and highlights its relevance within the ERA and Horizon Europe (HE), with a special focus on the HE programme component “Reforming and Enhancing the European R&I System” (in short: the “ERA part”) of the WIDERA work programme. For more information about the ERA part, visit the dedicated Research Executive Agency page and NCP Flanders page.  

The European Commission defines knowledge valorisation as follows: “KV is the process of creating social and economic value from knowledge – transforming research results, data, and know-how into sustainable products, services, solutions, and knowledge-based policies that benefit society. It serves as a bridge linking academia, industry, policymakers, and citizens”. The topics covered in the factsheet are:

  • KV in the ERA Part of the WIDERA Programme
  • ERA KV: Key Milestones
  • HE: KV Funding Actions
  • EU Tools and Resources for KV
  • Activities and Key Studies for KV
  • Information and Advice

NCP Flanders offers info sheets on the following topics Knowledge Valorisation & Results Boosters in the HORIZON Europe context and the Horizon Results Platform.

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.
