EP THCS Partnership: the 3rd transnational call on health and social care systems is about to be launched!
On 26 November 2024 , the European Partnership on Transforming Health and Care Systems (THCS), which aims to address the growing burden on Europe's healthcare systems and ensure high quality and sustainable health and care services through transnational collaboration, will launch its third transnational call "Better care closer to home: Enhancing primary and community care".
The call aims to fund research and innovation projects that will strengthen primary and community health and social care systems and provide policy and decision makers with the necessary knowledge and tools in relation to the primary and community care sector.
The Ministry of Health / Agency for Health Research ČR will participate in this call!
The national rules and conditions for Czech applicants are currently being prepared and will be based on the Programme for the Support of Applied Health Research 2024-2030: Sub-programme 3: European Partnerships in Health, and will be published on the website AZV ČR by the time of the call announcement. We recommend keeping an eye on the website AZV ČR as well as the official call website here.
MZ ČR will support Czech applicants through the national budget allocation. The total amount for the call will be EUR 500 000.
Project proposals are expected to address one of two sub-themes:
- Strengthening the primary and community health care system;
- Systems approaches to modernising the primary and community care sector.
Only transnational projects will be funded. Proposals must be submitted by a consortium of partners from at least three countries involved in the call (including ČR). Each consortium may include up to two eligible partners from the same country. The call will be a two-round call.
