The European Partnership 'Transforming Health & Care Systems' (THCS) pools a critical mass of European, national, and regional and international scientific resources to address more efficiently similar challenges faced by health and care systems in Europe and beyond.
The partnership aims to create new knowledge and scientific evidence but also to co-design new solutions & support their transfer and scale-up across countries and regions.
The THCS consortium is mainly composed of a network of Ministries of Research & Innovation, Research & Innovation Funding Organisations and Ministries of Health or Regional Health & Care Authorities. It gathers partners from 64 organisations established in 23 EU Members States and associated countries.
Flanders is represented in the consortium by the Flanders Innovation & Entrepreneurship (VLAIO). Located in Flanders & interested to participate? Find out more on the dedicated VLAIO webpage.
Who can participate in Flanders? The target group is broad. All Flemish companies (both SMEs and large companies) that want to carry out a challenging and risky R&D project together with foreign companies, healthcare organizations and/or knowledge institutions can submit a project proposal.
The Partnership opened a first call for proposals with focus on 'healthcare of the future' beginning of 2023. The call is now closed and results are expected in Autumn 2023.
In february 2024, THCS launched its second Joint Transnational Call (JTC) for proposals aiming to support the implementation of innovative person-centred health and care models addressing prevention strategies, with the key help of existing IT and digital technologies and services.

Partnerships group the EC and private and/or public partners, to coordinate and streamline the research & innovation initiatives and funding in some selected key domains.
The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
