Document type: call for proposal published in EU funding portal
Author: EU funding
Preview:Call for proposals aimed at addressing critical research and innovation challenges in terrestrial and aquatic animal health. This initiative is designed to accelerate the transition toward sustainable, resilient, and ethically responsible livestock and aquaculture systems across Europe. Applicants must focus their proposals on one of two primary thematic areas: Topic 1: Animal Welfare: This track focuses on improving welfare throughout the entire production cycle—from birth and rearing to transport and slaughter. Projects should prioritize the development of indicators for positive emotional states, sensor-based monitoring technologies, and more humane stunning or killing methods. Topic 2: Prevention & Control: This area supports the development of innovative therapeutics and vaccines. Research actions include creating tools to differentiate infected from vaccinated animals (DIVA), reinforcing animal resilience through breeding and nutrition, and developing infection models that reduce the need for traditional animal testing.
