Programmes Climate/EnvironmentERA-MIN 3 supports ambitious, transnational research and development projects within the following topics:
The 2021 call of ERA-MINUS 3 is now open with the deadline for the pre-proposals 1 April 2021.
The partners of the international project proposals receive support from their own country or region for their contribution to the project. Specific eligibility criteria and support modalities apply to each country or region. More information about the participating countries and regions can be found here.
Flanders Innovation & Entrepreneurship (VLAIO) uses the support programme for research and development projects to finance the Flemish share of ERA-MIN3 projects. More information can be found here.
The project leader of the international ERA-MIN3 project submits the project to ERA-MIN3 by 1 April 2021. As a Flemish participant. you must also submit a digital application for a research or development project with regard to the Flemish project part at VLAIO. Here you choose "international project" and "ERA-MIN" and download the corresponding templates. You submit this to VLAIO by the same date of 1 April 2021.
If you are a company based in Flanders and are considering submitting an application, whether or not in cooperation with a "Research partner", please contact VLAIO (elsie.declercq@vlaio.be) for further explanations and/or an exploratory conversation.
Looking forward to your request.

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.
