This Horizon Europe call strengthens disaster resilience through societal engagement and digital innovation. It pays special attention to younger generations. Moreover, it uses lump-sum funding.
About the Disaster Resilience Call
Disasters affect communities in different ways. Young people can be powerful actors in preparedness and response. Furthermore, digital tools help people understand risks and act together. As a result, the call succeeds the Cluster 3 disaster-resilience topics on the UTA page. Explore more smart city funding opportunities on the UTA funding page.
Who Can Apply to the Disaster Resilience Call
Applicants form a standard Horizon Europe consortium of at least three entities from three EU Member States or Associated Countries. In addition, civil protection bodies and cities add practical value.
Focus Areas and Funding
The total budget is €6m, with two projects of about €3m each expected. Therefore, proposals should show clear societal impact. In short, applicants should align their project closely with the expected outcomes and impact described in the call text.
