Project Summary / Breve Descrição do Projeto:
The Joint Action on Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes (JACARDI) seeks to reduce the impact of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes (DM) in EU countries by integrating best practices and effective interventions through transnational pilot projects. This initiative aims to enhance health literacy, improve screening and prevention for high-risk groups, and optimize care pathways and self-management for individuals with CVD/DM while addressing health equity and social diversity.
Involving 21 EU countries and 76 partners, JACARDI consists of 11 Work Packages (WPs) and will implement 142 pilot projects to ensure broad geographic coverage. The initiative will develop a unified methodology for analyzing success factors, resulting in a roadmap that promotes scalability and cross-national collaboration, ultimately aiming to enhance interactions between science and policy for impactful outcomes.
