Deadline: 25-Jan-22
The European Commission (EC) is inviting proposals for the Action grants for ‘EU Cancer Treatment Capacity and Capability Mapping’ project – Network of Comprehensive Cancer Centres to map and share the different capabilities and expertise available across the Union.
The action will support the identification of the different capabilities and expertise available across the Union, and build the foundation to regularly identify gaps and needs to be addressed at national and regional level across the Union. At the same time, the EU Network of Comprehensive Cancer Centers will be updated on cancer care innovation as well as on cancer workforce training.
Specific Action-Level Indicators for Reporting Purposes
Applicants must include data on the following indicators in their regular reporting activities in case of award, and must be prepared to include additional specific indicators where needed:
- Numb er of inputs treated by the scanning exercise.
- Number (including types) of regular reports provided by the horizon scanning tool (s) developed and operated by the project.
- Number (including types) of downloads of reports.
Funding Information
- Available the budget for this topic: EUR 1,200,000
- The duration of proposals should range between 12 and 36 months. Given the complexity of the activities to be funded under this topic, the recommended length of a project is 24 months.
Expected Impact: The mapping of EU Cancer Treatment Capacity and Capability in the Member States is expected to result in facilitating the delivery of higher-quality care and reduce inequalities across the Union, while enabling patients to benefit from diagnosis and treatment close to home.
