I would like to share two brief documents (attached) containing descriptions of our two intervention packages aimed, respectively, at the age groups 12-18 and 19-25, in case they have not been shared with you before. It would be great if your Institute were willing to take the lead on implementing one pf the two packages (preferably the one for 19-25 year olds) in a sample of young people in Germany. Perhaps we can schedule a call later this week to discuss the feasibility of this.

The call I am referring to can be found here: HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-STAYHLTH-02 https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tenders/opportunities/portal/screen/opport... It has a deadline of the 16th of April 2026. We were wondering if BIÖG would be interested in joining our proposal, titled "Z-Health - Health in the digital generation", as a leading institution from Germany that could become one of the partner countries to implement interventions and co-create with young people (age groups 12-18 and 19-25). We were very excited to learn about the launch of your Jugendbeirat (Youth Advisory Board) and thought your institution would be a great fit for our consortium. Currently, the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, the National Institute of Public Health Slovenia, Issinova, and a few others have already joined the partner consortium. Please let us know if you would be interested in joining the bid and learning more about the project proposal itself, and we would also appreciate an answer if you are already a part of a different bid for this specific call. We remain available in case of any questions. Wishing you a lovely rest of the day!
