Transforming Health and Care Systems (THCS) call for projects
The THCS partnership aims to support the development of new and innovative solutions that can tackle the current and future challenges of health and care systems under a collaborative and transnational approach.
The 2026 call for projects “Access to care” aims to fund research and innovation projects that, within an ecosystem approach, contribute to ensuring equitable access to and utilisation of health and care services, while building on existing evidence to deliver innovative solutions.
Through the funded research and innovation projects, policy and decision makers should gain the knowledge and tools necessary to implement the reallocation of resources as the health and care system undergoes a transition to meet new and ongoing challenges.
The outcomes should aim at transforming care pathways and organisational models and support long-term adoption by health systems. Projects are encouraged to develop new service models, practices, or scalable innovations that directly enhance access and equity in care delivery.
The THCS call for projects is open to universities, higher education institutions, research institutes, hospitals, foundations and other healthcare providers, user organisations, SMEs and large companies.
