Description

The complexity and interdependency of risks the EU faces shows the importance of identifying vulnerabilities in critical sectors, anticipating hazards and threats and reinforcing collective action to better prevent and prepare for disasters.

The Knowledge for Action in Prevention and Preparedness (KAPP) call for proposals aims to identify projects strengthening cooperation among Member and Participating States on disaster prevention and preparedness, as well as providing a testing environment and a learning opportunity for all actors involved in civil protection assistance interventions, through full-scale field exercises. It also supports the implementation of the Union disaster resilience goals.

The call is open for applications of consortia formed by legal public or private entities - civil protection authorities, NGOs, universities, research organisations - established in one of the eligible countries: EU Member States, UCPM Participating States and, for projects only, Instrument for Pre-Accession (IPA) beneficiary countries, and European Neighbourhood Policy countries.  

The 2025 KAPP call is organised in two separate call topics:

Topic 1: Prevention and Preparedness

Topic 2: Full-scale exercises

DG ECHO will organise an online information session about this call for proposals on 28 January 2025. More information can be found here.
