Horizon Europe Framework Programme (HORIZON); Water4All

The European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP) exists to accelerate the clinical development of new or improved health technologies for the identification, treatment and prevention of poverty-related and neglected infectious diseases, including (re-)emerging diseases.
In addition, the EDCTP funds activities for research capacity building in Africa, supporting researchers’ careers and strengthening national health research systems.
The Global Health EDCTP3 Joint Undertaking (GH EDCTP3 JU) builds on the first and second European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership programmes. This new joint undertaking is a partnership between the EU and the EDCTP Association, whose members are several European and African countries.
Areas that will be addressed under Work Programme 2023 include:
  • strengthening ethics and regulatory capacity in sub-Saharan Africa
  • training of researchers
  • several areas looking at the late-stage development and implementation of interventions to fight infectious diseases in sub-Saharan Africa.
Work Programme 2023, including funding opportunities, will be published in Q1 2023.
