Destination 1: Staying healthy in a rapidly changing society
Destination 2: Living and working in a health-promoting environment
Destination 3: Tackling diseases and reducing disease burden
Destination 4: Ensuring access to innovative, sustainable and high-quality healthcare
Destination 5: Unlocking the full potential of new tools, technologies and digital solutions for a healthy society
Destination 6: Maintaining an innovative, sustainable and globally competitive health-related industry

Under each of these Destinations, calls for proposals are published regularly, usually once to twice per year. These calls are usually for collaborative projects, for applicant consortia consisting of organisations situated in different EU countries and beyond.
