Boosting innovation for a better understanding of the determinants of health

The European Union has specific procedures in place for IHI funding calls, including the need to form a consortium with designated industry partners. Please consult with the Major Projects Office for more information.

Program Code: HORIZON-JU-IHI-2025-09-01-single-stage

Program Type: Research and Innovation Action

Applicants must assemble a collaborative public-private partnership consortium reflecting the cross-sectoral nature of Innovative Health Initiative to achieve at least one of the following:

• patients benefit from preventive treatment or early disease intervention before onset of symptoms
• prevention and early diagnosis of disease combined with better understanding of the mechanisms involved, leading to more cost-effective strategies
• improved healthcare through regular monitoring of critical parameters using validated tools
• new vaccine strategies targeted to specific sub-populations
• increased preparedness of EU healthcare systems for disease outbreaks

Projects should contribute to strengthening the competitiveness of the EU’s health industry.

Total Funding Available: $7.5-15M CAD for 2 grants.
