With its new priority for a European Green Deal the European Commission plans to make EU’s economy sustainable, by turning the climate and environmental challenges into opportunities.

In Horizon 2020 the Green Deal call  has been added to create visible close-to-market R&I projects that can help make the EU fully sustainable by 2050.The call is divided into 8 core themes taclinkg many domains and 2 supporting areas (on knowledge systems and research infrastructure and citizen engagement). More information can be found on the European Green Deal page of our website. 

In preparation of the Research and Innovation days (22-24 september) where all the calls will be presented in detail, we will organize two webinars about this topic:

  • on 9 September (9:30-10:30): is aimed at interested parties that have no previous knowledge of the Green Deal. We will explain the topics in a very summarized way so you can determine if it falls within the scope of your activities
  • on 11 September (9:30-11:00): an expert from the European Commission (Sven Schade) will give his in-dept view into the background of the Green Deal. In the second part of this webinar,  we will give some information on the partnering tools in order for you to form a good consortium for the upcoming calls. We will close it off with a latest update on the EU Research and Industry days.

1 website with more information and 1 registration form is available for both events here.

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.
