The European Partnership for Pandemic Preparedness aims to improve the EU’s preparedness to predict, prevent and respond to emerging infectious health threats by better coordinating funding for research and innovation at EU, national and regional level. The preparatory actions BE READY and BE READY PLUS are building the foundation for the future partnership expected to be launched beginning of 2026.
The preparatory action BE READY PLUS kicked off in April 2025 with the aim to translate research priorities into actionable steps through a call topic selection strategy aligned with the SRIA. BE READY PLUS will lay the groundwork for early actions, ensuring that the partnership is fully prepared to implement the SRIA from its first annual workplan.
