Summary

THCŠJTC represents a major joint transnational initiative launched in 2023 to empower health and care systems through research and innovation, fundamentally changing the landscape of scientific investment. This unique consortium brings together a diverse network of Ministries of Research and Innovation, Health authorities, and regional funding bodies from 35 EU Member States, non-EU partners, and countries including Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Poland, Romania, and more. The program aims to secure long-term funding through innovative funding mechanisms that ensure equitable access to research. Key strategic phases include prioritizing priorities, defining Pillars and Work Packages, and launching multiple Joint Transnational Calls (JTC) spanning 2023 through 2026. Notable initiatives such as JTC 2024, 2025 (Enhancing primary and community care), 2026 (Access to Care), and JTC 2025 focus on advancing healthcare technology, promoting preventive measures, and making care closer to the community. With over 35 EU Member States participating, the JTC 2024 specifically targeted innovative research to support the JTC 2026 vision of enhancing primary and community care while ensuring access to care for all. The JTC 2025 agenda centers on developing care technologies that facilitate health and care system transformations by strengthening research capacity and promoting preventive health strategies. Funding opportunities are actively sought in areas such as health systems reform, health research and innovation, technology in health care, and ensuring equitable access to health care across the entire spectrum. By leveraging a network of 251 partner organizations and multiple funding opportunities, the initiative provides the necessary resources to drive systemic transformation and ensure sustainable access to care for the future.
