Wildfires in Horizon 2020

Wildfires are proposed as one of the priorities in a call for Horizon Europe, R&D to support the Green Deal. The European Commission consulted on actions in eleven areas in May, with wildfires as one of three proposed calls under the theme of Climate Change. The EU is looking to fund innovative and integrated approaches to preventing, predicting and fighting wildfires, including R&D into wildfire behaviour, data and monitoring, wildfire fighting technologies and equipment, governance, including awareness and preparedness, restoration and adaptation.
