EUTOPIA_HEALTH

• Strengthen institutional capacities for research and innovation in health-related fields, particularly in partner countries that are developing research and development infrastructure (Romania, Portugal, and Slovenia).
• Update and adapt R&I management strategies and policies in line with the new European principles for research evaluation.
• Establish a network of Connected Health Research Communities that will facilitate interdisciplinary training, researcher mobility, and seed funding for research collaborations.
• Promote transformative health innovations by connecting research with society, industry, and policymakers.

• Interdisciplinary training for researchers, research program managers, and other key stakeholders.
• Mobility programs for early-career researchers and other research stakeholders.
• Mentoring, networking, and support for the development of innovative research projects.
• Promotion of open, inclusive, and collaborative research practices.

• strengthening research capacities and the competencies of researchers in the field of health;
• promoting mobility and international cooperation within the EUTOPIA network;
• establishing tools to support researchers, such as a research map and a mobility portal, which facilitate the search for connections and the planning of mobility across the entire network of partners;
• organizing workshops, training sessions, and events aimed at improving researchers’ success in securing European funding.

The project also promotes collaboration beyond academic boundaries, as it facilitates partnerships with industry, civil society, and policymakers, thereby strengthening the impact of research on societal challenges in healthcare.

As part of the EUTOPIA_HEALTH project, we anticipate a comprehensive and long-term impact on the research and development landscape in the field of health. The project promotes the development and deepening of interdisciplinary research collaborations, which are essential for effectively addressing complex health challenges. EUTOPIA_HEALTH also establishes a sustainable foundation for the further development of healthcare, innovation, and knowledge transfer in the region and beyond.
