The European Union has invested over 70 million Euros in wildfire risk management related research and innovation activities, mainly under its Green Deal Program aiming to transform the EU into a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy, with a reduced impact of wildfires, ensuring no net emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050.

CORDIS, the European Commission's primary service for EU-funded research results, has published an article about the SAFERS project in its latest Results Pack on "Environmental Observations solutions for the EU Green Deal." This publication highlights SAFERS's contributions towards enhancing environmental resilience in the face of climate challenges.

In this final animation, we look back over the main achievements of the H2020 project SAFERS.

SAFERS partners have managed to create over the past 3,5 years an integrated and open-source platform that helps preventing and managing forest fires. SAFERS Intelligent Services are now operational and implemented by Piedmont Regional Civil Protection (with the support of CSI Piemonte) in Italy and Hellenic Rescue Team (HRT) in Greece. Additionally, more than 30 organizations from 13 different countries are currently testing SAFERS platform in the framework of its free trial campaign.
