Scope, objectives and expected outcomes
Overall objective:support development of inter- and transdisciplinary research and operationalisation of One Health and Planetary Health approaches through data-driven, FAIR data-enabled use cases, interoperable infrastructures, analytical tools and a full proof-of-concept demonstrating holistic, cross-domain integration that links biodiversity, ecosystem health, wildlife, animal husbandry, plant and human health.
- 1Expected outcomes: Provide public authorities, researchers and policymakers with robust knowledge foundations and analytical frameworks enabling inter- and transdisciplinary biodiversity-related research and collaboration, addressing interdependencies and strengthening One Health/Planetary Health operationalisation.
- 2Make FAIR data accessible for researchers, public authorities and global organisations via enhanced digital infrastructures, mobilising and interoperating existing datasets across domains relevant to ecosystem and wildlife health and drivers of biodiversity loss and their impacts on human and animal health.
- 3Deliver evidence-based, actionable outputs (recommendations, guidelines, interoperable indicators, decision-support tools) enabling stakeholders to assess health benefits and risks from ecosystem maintenance, restoration and multi-host disease prevention and to implement biodiversity mainstreaming in One Health/Planetary Health actions.
Proposals must deliver three interconnected components:(1) minimum six thematic use cases; (2) enhanced data sharing and interoperability across thematic domains and validated analytical/Data Source Integration tools; (3) a proof-of-concept that integrates results to demonstrate a holistic One Health approach and produces uptake-ready outputs for policymakers and practitioners.
Detailed scope and technical requirements
- 1Use cases: Minimum six complementary thematic use cases. Collectively the use cases must address the most significant drivers of biodiversity loss (land and sea use change, direct exploitation, climate change, pollution to air water and soil, invasive alien and proliferating species) and their health impacts. Health outcomes to cover infectious diseases (including wildlife-domesticated interface, multi-host pathogens and spillover), non-communicable diseases and mental health where relevant. Use cases must explicitly be grounded in biodiversity and ecosystem health, include a mandatory link to human health, cover at least three different ecosystem types across terrestrial, freshwater and marine realms and span different biogeographical regions. Consideration of large-scale disturbances or environmental emergencies is allowed where relevant.
- 2Data sharing and interoperability: Select and mobilise existing datasets across domains relevant to the use cases. New data collection only when crucial knowledge gaps are identified. Identify critical data gaps with attention to European data sovereignty. Embed FAIR principles and CARE principles where relevant. Promote inter- and transdisciplinary data sharing practices, collaboration with EOSC Federation and Common European Data Spaces, and make use of European research infrastructures and services where applicable.
- 3Analytical tools, ontologies and governance: Develop and validate analytical and Data Source Integration tools, including AI models when appropriate, build harmonised ontologies, reporting standards and interoperable indicators. Provide data and software governance recommendations and embed FAIR/CARE in governance.
- 4Proof of concept: Create a full integration across domains using results from use cases to demonstrate how One Health/Planetary Health approaches enhance resilience to biodiversity loss, ecosystem degradation, diseases/pests, pollution and climate change. Produce evidence-based, actionable outputs, guidelines, decision-support tools and recommendations targeted at policymakers, risk assessors and relevant public authorities.
- 5Multi-actor, stakeholder engagement and uptake: Apply a multi-actor approach including data providers, Social Sciences and Humanities, affected communities, food producers, healthcare and animal health professionals, civil society, private sector and international organisations. Seek early and structured stakeholder engagement and plan uptake pathways including with EU/national agencies and international One Health organisations.
- 6EOSC, Common European Data Spaces and research infrastructures: Projects are encouraged to leverage EOSC and other Common European Data Spaces for digital services and to connect to European research infrastructures (ESFRI), ensuring robust validated data, sustainability and interoperability. Capitalise on datasets and results from recent or ongoing EU-funded projects and research agendas.
- 7Cluster participation and joint activities: All funded projects under this topic will form a cluster and participate in common networking and joint activities (common dissemination and communication strategy; common Data Management Strategy and Common Policy Strategy including joint policy briefs; thematic workshops/trainings; cooperation with the EC Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity and its Science Service; and answering science-to-policy requests). A dedicated work package for cluster activities with sufficient budget is required.
Mandatory scientific and technical emphases:Inter- and transdisciplinary integration across Life Sciences and Environmental domains; use and mobilisation of existing datasets; FAIR data implementation; development of interoperable ontologies and reporting standards; validated analytical integration tools (AI permitted where appropriate); proof-of-concept demonstrating operational One Health integration across domains.
Proposals are expected to support EU policy objectives including the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, Nature Restoration Regulation, European Data Union Strategy, Strategy for European Life Sciences, EU Global Health Strategy, Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, EU One Health Approach and the global One Health agenda.
