Climate change, pandemics, conflicts and natural hazards are becoming more frequent.

And we need to boost our response, prevention and preparation for the consequences of major disasters in the EU.

Today we establish 5 goals to boost disaster resilience in civil protection ↓

1⃣ Anticipate:

Developing several Europe-wide disaster scenarios will help improve disaster risk assessment, anticipation, and the planning of response management.

2⃣ Prepare:

A pan-European awareness programme for disaster resilience will help increase risk awareness and preparedness of people.

3⃣ Alert:

Linking early global warning with local action in Europe will help ensure that warning messages across the national, regional and local levels reach people on time.

4⃣ Respond:

Scaling-up the EU's own strategic reserves and pool capacities will ensure that the EU can provide more help and fill critical gaps when the capacity of a disaster-affected country is overwhelmed.

5️⃣ Secure:

Emergency response operation centres across Europe will help make sure that civil protection systems are operational 24/7, during and after disasters, when they are needed the most.

For over 20 years, the #EUCivPro Mechanism has ensured a swift and efficient emergency response.

The new goals will help to keep up with the changing and more challenging disaster risk landscape.
