The Programme aims to improve and promote health in the Union to reduce the burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases by:
This action will complement the Member States’ joint action on ‘Prevention of NCDs -Cardiovascular diseases and diabetes’ (DP-g-22-06.03) that aims to contribute to reducing the burden of NCDs, i.e. cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, and related risk factors, both at apersonal and societal level, including the health inequalities dimension.
The civil society organisations will implement targeted projects and activities, complementing the Member States’ efforts in the design, planning and implementation of best practices, including support to the definition of public health guidelines, to the preparation and roll out of new policy approaches, to the pilot test of innovative practices, and to support actions such as training and twinning, health communication or health literacy. Activities should also include an equity dimension and aim at reducing health inequalities.
The costs will be reimbursed at the funding rate fixed in the Grant Agreement (maximum 60%). Your organisation can apply for a higher project funding rate (maximum 80%) if your project is of “exceptional utility”. Actions shall be considered to have exceptional utility where at least 30% of the budget of the proposed action is allocated to Member States whose GNI per inhabitant is less than 90% of the Union average; or the project concerns actions with bodies from at least 14 Member States and where at least four (4) are from Member States whose GNI per inhabitant is less than 90% of the EU average.
(Up to 10 proposals – € 500 000 per project)
In order to be eligible for funding, the applicants (beneficiaries and affiliated entities) must be legal entities (public or private bodies) established in EU Member States or EEA countries and countries associated to the EU4Health Programme or countries which are in ongoing negotiations for an association agreement.
