Improving disaster risk management and governance to ensure self-sufficiency and sustainability of operations in support of enhanced resilience

This funding call aims to support research and innovation projects that improve disaster risk management and governance. The objectives are to enhance early warning systems, long-term planning, and risk governance linked to natural and human-made threats. Proposals should address either enhanced impact forecasting for climate/weather extreme events and geohazards or understanding and preparedness for CBRN-E threats. The call emphasizes inclusivity and societal engagement to strengthen resilience. Projects should demonstrate, test, and validate tools while planning for future national and EU-level implementation. Proposals should build on previous research while avoiding duplication and should actively engage regional/local authorities, emergency responders, and volunteers. Projects must include assessments by practitioners during the project lifecycle and involve SSH experts for societal impact.
