Pre-announcement: JPICH Conservation and Protection Call
Safeguarding Europe’s unique cultural heritage against the effects of continuous ageing and decay under global change conditions is a major concern for decision makers and researchers in Europe. Heritage should be understood in its broadest sense and one which recognises the interconnectedness betwe
Pre-announcement: Water JPI 2018 Joint Call “Closing the Water Cycle Gap – Improving Sustainable Management of Water Resources”
Scope of the Water JPI 2018 Joint Call In many regions, it may be difficult to reconcile water supply and demand both in terms of quantity and quality. The aim of the RDI actions under this theme is, therefore, to bridge the gap in “supply–demand” by enabling the sustainable management of water
Pre-announcement: a joint call for transnational collaborative research projects on sustainable management of water resources in agriculture, forestry and freshwater aquaculture sectors soon to be launched
The availability of water of adequate quality in sufficient quantities is a major issue of public interest at the European and world scale. Water is a vital resource, not only for direct consumption, but also for health, the production of food, industrial assets and goods. The dimension of the econo
Pre-announcement: a joint transnational call on “Enabling Societal Transformation in the Face of Climate Change” (SOLSTICE)
SOLSTICE seeks interdisciplinary contributions from consortia led by Social Sciences and Humanities who will address societal aspects of climate change. Given the pressing nature of global climate change, SOLSTICE aims at producing knowledge that can have an impact on society and policy; impact shou
Pre-announcement: a large Joint Transnational Call on Researching and Advancing Climate Services Development soon to be launched
The climate science community finds itself increasingly exposed to various groups of stakeholders asking rather specific questions about consequences, uncertainties, probabilities related to climate and climate change. As a consequence the concept of "climate services" has recently emerged. This ter
Pre-announcement: a transnational call addressing the adverse and beneficial effects of food ingredients and food processing on hypersensitivities to food

Individuals suffering from such problems often have to abstain from many food products increasing the risks associated to unbalanced diets. The scope of the prese
Pre-announcement: a transnational call on One Health Interventions aiming to prevent or reduce the development and transmission of antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic discovery and their increasing use over the past century leads to a progressive decrease in mortality induced by bacterial infections. However, due to a massive (and often inappropriate) use of antibiotics in Human and Animal Health, the number of resistant bacteria progressively increase
Pre-announcement: a transnational call on standardised measurement, monitoring and/or biomarkers to study food intake, physical activity and health
This new joint transnational call intends to fund dedicated, top-class transnational research consortia to develop improved methods and tools to asses and monitor diet and physical activity in order to provide better dietary and physical activity recommendations and guidelines. Through this call, t
Pre-announcement: a transnational call on the prevention of undernutrition in older adults
While undernutrition in older adults correlates with a general decline in health conditions, with an increased number (and duration) of hospital stays, and with a higher rate of mortality, the prevention of undernutrition in older adults constitutes an important challenge for our European ageing pop
Pre-announcement: a transnational call on the prevention of unhealthy weight gain and obesity during crucial phases throughout the lifespan
This new joint transnational call intends to fund dedicated, top-class transnational research consortia to provide insights on innovative strategies to prevent or reduce overweight and obesity in defined target populations based on certain life stages. This call will give a unique opportunity to con
