EDEN1 (2004-2010) and EDENext2 (2011-2015) were two large collaborative research projects funded by the European Commission (Directorate-General for Research and Innovation) in Framework Programmes 6 and 7. They were aimed at improving knowledge as well as surveillance and control tools regarding vector-borne infections in Europe and neighbouring territories. In EDEN, more emphasis was put on understanding the effect of environmental changes on the emergence of these infections, and characterising those ecosystems at high risk of emergence. In EDENext, the focus was more on understanding the biological processes, and preparing the transfer of research results to Public Health. As a whole, EDEN and EDENext involved 58 partners from 23 countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (Figure 1a). To implement and manage the work programme negotiated with the Commission, a matrix-like structure was adopted (Figure 1b) with vector groups as the "columns", and integrative teams as the "rows". This structure was adopted to facilitate the harmonisation of field and laboratory work, as well as the dissemination of methods and tools.
