What this call funds

Expected Outcome:

Project results are expected to contribute to some or all of the following expected outcomes:

  • Development of decision support systems for disaster crises, utilizing near real-time data from the ground to enhance situational awareness and response;
  • Creation of systems designed to bolster civil preparedness, that enhance operational efficiency and response times, ensuring timely and effective management of various disaster scenarios including from early warning to early action
  • Integration of advanced data analysis and decision-making tools to support authorities and first responders in disaster situations.

Scope:

This topic focuses on enhancing existing decision support systems for disaster crises by integrating emerging technologies to improve civil preparedness and crisis management. The objective is to advance the capabilities of existing systems, making them more reliable, adaptable, and efficient through the incorporation of trustworthy AI technologies that ensure transparency, accountability, and ethical decision-making processes. Projects should aim to enable quicker and more informed responses during disaster scenarios.

These are Bemzu's estimates from the call's structure (the number of stages and whether a consortium is required) not figures published by the Commission. Only the co-financing share is read from the call itself.

Where these conditions come from

Two kinds of row. Most are the sentence we read the condition from, quoted out of the call itself. Some say plainly that they are not a quotation but the programme's own rule for this type of action, the EU portal publishes a table of contents where the conditions should be, so for a Research and Innovation Action the rate comes from the rulebook rather than from the fiche.

ConditionQuoted from the call, or the rule behind it
