Disaster Resilience, Response and Recovery Call 2026
Funds international R&D consortia building new or scalable technology for disaster preparedness, emergency response and post-disaster recovery, paid out through each partner's own national funding agency.
A consortium of at least two independent organisations from two different participating countries applies through EUREKA's shared online portal, and each partner is then funded, if at all, by their own national funding agency on that country's own terms. Civil society groups, municipalities, hospitals and public authorities may join as end-users or pilot/validation partners, but the project must b…
This call backs collaborative research, development and innovation projects that strengthen disaster preparedness, emergency response and post-disaster recovery, covering both natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, drought, storms, wildfires, extreme temperatures, avalanches, volcanic activity) and human-caused ones (conflict-related destruction, urban fires, industrial accidents, infrastructure failures). Indicative areas include resilient infrastructure and construction, digital and predictive technologies such as early-warning systems, search-and-rescue technology, resilient communications, health resilience technology, and circular post-disaster recovery solutions. Projects must go beyond humanitarian assistance, off-the-shelf procurement or routine reconstruction and show a genuine R&D dimension, starting at Technology Readiness Level 5 or above.
