    HDHL Food4Health addresses the intertwined challenges of food and diet-related Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs) and Climate Change by fostering collaboration and aligning research efforts across food, health, and environment areas. Through a participatory approach, HDHL Food4Health widens the HDHL network and organises co-creation workshops to identify common Research & Innovation (R&I) priorities. It aims to overcome siloed approaches by coordinating activities among government, academia, industry, and citizens, enhancing societal impact at national and regional levels. Leveraging its connections with researchers, policymakers, and other relevant stakeholders, HDHL supports its members in contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by aligning food and health systems. The initiative facilitates joint funding calls and implements transdisciplinary research actions to maximise impact and address urgent societal challenges. By promoting collaboration and knowledge exchange, HDHL Food4Health aims to catalyse a shift towards healthier and more sustainable food systems, ultimately contributing to improved public health and environmental sustainability. The main objective of HDHL Food4Health is to align common R&I priorities among funding programmes by identifying research and policy needs, whilst continuing to align both with the Horizon Europe (HE) Partnerships and the needs identified by the European Commission.

    Funder Contribution: 554,258 EUR

    The Skills in Metal and Electro Industry – skillME project was a three-year international Erasmus+ project involving vocational education and training (VET) providers, national regulatory bodies and sectoral organisations from the four EU member states Slovenia, Croatia, Latvia, and Slovakia, which aimed at filling skill gaps and advancing VET in the metal and electro industries (ME) as two important sectors driving the European manufacturing industry, both in terms of employment as well as value added. Both sectors are facing great challenges due to shortage of skilled labour, which is a result of several factors, the most prominent among which are the out-of-date and/or inflexible VET systems, rapid development of technology and production processes, lack of resources for continuous training of employees by companies, and a decline of interest among young people for metal and electro job profiles. The skillME project aimed to address all of these issues. Its main objectives were to identify the most pressing skill gaps among students and workers of the electro and metal industry’s advanced manufacturing sector that are common to all project participating countries and are perceived as acute also in other EU member states, to develop curricula in accordance with EQAVET, EQF and ECVET principles to fill the identified skill gaps, to test the developed trainings on pilot groups of students and workers, and to create a platform for sharing good practices and information among VET stakeholders.On the basis of a wide desk research, interviews with stakeholders, focus groups with industry representatives and discussions with experts, the four most pressing skill gaps in the metal and electro industry were identified in the fields of CAD/CAM, Machine vision, Composite materials, and Reading technical documentation. Training materials in English were developed for these fields, consisting of curricula (learning units and outcomes), assessment papers and learning materials, with separate materials for the field of Reading technical documentation for the metal and electro industries. They were localized into four national participating languages and pilot tested on students and workers in all four participating countries. The curricula were created in line with the ECVET principles and assessed with the EQAVET indicators to assure quality and adoptability across Europe, focusing on learning outcomes.The pilot trainings showed that the created materials are highly useful and practical and contain the most up-to-date knowledge lacking in both industries. The developed trainings will make an impact on VET providers of initial and continuous training who will enhance their trainings/classes portfolio, on school trainees and workers who will receive updated knowledge for skills which are missing in electro and metal industry, on companies who will have more skilled workforce, especially those who are lacking training resources, and on the rest of industry and public who will recognize the added value of such cooperation in curricula design and delivery. All materials are free to use, provided a reference is made to the skillME project and Erasmus+ Programme financing.The activities set out in the project will continue within the Alliance for the Advancement of VET in the Metal and Electro Industry, which is an international platform intended for all stakeholders of the metal and electro industries as well as other industries that wish to enhance the VET for improving the employability of students and workers using the innovative approach of developing trainings based on industry needs, strengthening the collaboration of VET providers, regulatory bodies and industry representative, increasing the competitiveness of EU member state manufacturing industries and improving the cooperation among EU member states through international collaboration and sharing of good practices.

  • Funder: European Commission Project Code: 101125102
    Overall Budget: 8,000,000 EURFunder Contribution: 8,000,000 EUR

    This Horizon Europe grant is to be understood within a wider context on EUSST, where other grants are being executed simultaneously with the common objective of improving the EU autonomy on Space Surveillance and Tracking. In particular, this TOP focuses on: - Keep the knowledge and capabilities of Europe on the Space Surveillance and Tracking domain at the leading edge. - Adapt, improve and evolve the current EUSST initial services (Collision Avoidance; Fragmentation; Re-entry) portfolio to future user needs and space environment. - Improve the overall performance of the EUSST services and ensure, in the long-term, a high level of performance and appropriate autonomy at Union level. - Identify and define new missions and services (e.g. debris mitigation; debris remediation). - Explore the implementation of new services, in complement of the three existing ones. - Support the pre-developments and end-to-end early demonstration of new SST services. The starting point of these activities is the output of 2-3SST2018-20, which constitutes the state of the art on SST matters.

    This Horizon Europe grant is to be understood within a wider context on EUSST, where other grants are being executed simultaneously with the common objective of improving the EU autonomy on Space Surveillance and Tracking. In particular, this TOP focuses on: - Study and assess several technical solutions for the development of a future European capability of SBSS. - Explore the use of small satellite solutions to reduce CAPEX and OPEX - To develop in the mid-term the European capacity to operate independently SBSS. - To reduce the dependence on critical SBSS technologies and capabilities from outside Europe, The is the first activity related to SBSS within EUSST.
