Fraunhofer Institute for Technological Trend Analysis INTFirelogue – Cross-sector dialogue for Wildfire Risk Management
Budget: ~ € 3,3 million EU funding
Coordinator: Fraunhofer INT
Consortium: 14 partners from 8 European countries
Goal: Wildfires are a growing challenge worldwide. Their intensity and geographical spread is increasing due to climate change and socio-economic changes.
At the same time, the large number of stakeholders ranging from forestry and agriculture to infrastructure operators, insurance, civil society, civil protection authorities and first responders constitutes a challenge in designing integrated policies.
In this context, the Firelogue project aims to support and coordinate the consolidation of research results from the wildfire risk related Green Deal Innovation Actions. It integrates the findings , and promotes the discussion via forums and workshops, leading to the exchange among a large range of stakeholders.
Fraunhofer INT Tasks: Fraunhofer INT is the project coordinator and responsible for all administrative and managerial aspects. Further, in leading the work package 4 “Dialogue formats for the coordination dimension: WFRM integration of measures and strategies”, Fraunhofer INT aims to offer a variety of exchange and dialogue opportunities for the Wildfire Risk Management (WFRM) community.
