Sumary of the intervention of Dr. Anne-Mieke Vandamme, professor at KU Leuven, during the 'One Health - Research and Innovation at the Crossroads of Environment and Health' - Tuesday April 23, co-organised by One Europe for Global Health and the KU Leuven.

The League of European Research Universities (LERU) and the European Global Health Research Institutes Network (EGHRIN) aimed to identify actions to support Global Health research in a Town Hall Meeting on Global Health entitled: Healthy people, healthy societies: an integrated approach. The meeting was held in Barcelona in June 2022.

Two pivotal advocacy, educational, and research promoting networks from European Universities – the League of European Research Universities (LERU) and the European Global Health Research Institutes Network (EGHRIN) jointly provided their views on the Commission’s perceptions and understanding of the problem and possible solutions in support of HERA’s key functions.

EGHRIN has published a paper with suggestions to make the legal frame work of of Horizon Europe more inclusive on global health. This technical document provides suggestions how to improve the legal text underlying Horizon Europe to facilitate this process

EGHRIN has published a paper, in which we respond to the Health “Cluster” within the Commission’s proposal for Horizon Europe. This paper provides detailed suggestions on how strategic investments and considerations regarding partnerships and investment instruments will support research and innovations for poverty related and neglected infectious diseases.

EGHRIN and its members find it essential to have a dedicated mechanism for funding Global Health research within Horizon Europe. Currently, EDCTP2 is the only dedicated mechanism for Global Health research of poverty-related infectious diseases within Horizon 2020.

Investing in global health and innovation should be higher priority in Europe’s new research funding program, according to a newly published Lancet commentary.

In this publication in BMJ, EGHRIN scientists publish an analysis that takes the evolvement of Horizon Europe from the initial framework of June 2018 to the framework agreed on in April 2019 into account. Their analysis shows that despite some improvements in terms of Global Health and reference to the Sustainable Development Goals, European industrial competitiveness continues to play a paramount role, with Global Health research needs and relevant health research for LMICs being only partially addressed. They argue that the globally interconnected nature of health and the transdisciplinary nature of health research need to be fully taken into account and acted on in the new European Research and Innovation Framework.

EGHRIN has published it’s business plan. This “nonprofit-business” plan sets out a roadmap for EGHRIN that provides the translation from the moonshot to actual activities and plans.

It also lays out our targets and goals and our plans for meeting those goals. This is a living document that will be updated on a yearly basis to reflect our evolving goals and circumstances.
