Ko jādara
This topic aims to advance the development of protective gear specifically designed for optimal performance in specificities of the Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRN-E) environments, along with the creation of a new generation of smart protective equipment for disaster responders. Projects should focus on the use of innovative materials, technologies, and design features that enhance the protective capabilities of gear used in high-risk, hazardous environments, ensuring the safety and well-being of disaster responders with an inclusive and user-centric approach. The integration of advanced technologies will be crucial to enhancing the operational efficiency and effectiveness of the equipment.
Projects should conduct a stakeholder or market analysis and a roadmap or plan for uptake of the developed methodologies, findings, and technologies to the industry, the research and innovation community, and/or the relevant authorities. The current response capacities of the European Civil Protection Pool[1] and the rescEU strategic reserve[2] should be taken into account in the roadmap to ensure needs-based approach.
Proposals should build upon existing research outputs, specifically under other Horizon Europe Cluster 4, and technologies to create smart, adaptive protective solutions that respond dynamically to evolving threats in CBRN-E scenarios. This includes the incorporation of features similar to automated hazard detection, environmental monitoring, and advanced communication systems to provide real-time situational awareness. The new gear should meet rigorous safety standards while improving the comfort, mobility, and usability of responders, enabling better performance and faster decision-making in demanding environments.
Proposals should focus on providing comprehensive solutions that combine robust protection, operational support, and data-driven insights, ensuring a holistic approach to safety. Collaboration between research institutions, manufacturers, and end-users will be essential to ensure that the resulting products meet the practical requirements of practitioners in the field. The Preparedness Union Strategy is a key document in this regard. Analysing the capacity gaps of the UCPM[3] as well as finding synergies with the rescEU strategic reserve and projects from operational grants, such as the Knowledge for Action in Prevention & Preparedness (KAPP)[4], is recommended.
Īpašās prasības pieteikuma iesniedzējam
⚑ Copernicus/Galileo obligāts ⚑ drošības ierobežojumi
- Copernicus/Galileo obligāts. Ja projekts lieto satelītu datus, tiem jābūt no ES sistēmām Copernicus, Galileo vai EGNOS.
- drošības ierobežojumi. Projekts var skart klasificētu informāciju vai prasīt drošības praktiķu dalību — papildu procedūras un ierobežojumi.
The following additional eligibility criteria apply:
This topic requires the active involvement, as beneficiaries, of:
- at least 2 Training CentresTraining centres are national, regional or local infrastructures, generally ruled by governments or professional organisations, aiming at training practitioners (first responders, civil protection units etc.) in near-real operational crisis situations. located in EU Member States or Associated Countries, and
- at least 2 practitioners involved in training, validation and testing of CBRN-E tools and technologies from at least 2 EU Member States or Associated Countries.
For these participants, applicants must fill in the table “Information about security practitioners” in the application form with all the requested information, following the template provided in the submission IT tool.
If projects use satellite-based earth observation, positioning, navigation and/or related timing data and services, beneficiaries must make use of Copernicus and/or Galileo/EGNOS (other data and services may additionally be used).
described in Annex B of the Work Programme General Annexes.
