    We are preparing a project proposal (type: Test) on the topic of harmonisation of tools and practices to prevent, monitor and manage natural disasters and risks induced by human activities, particularly related to FIRES, SEARCH AND RESCUES MISSIONS.

    In addition to the action plans and strategic documentation for harmonization of practices, we are developing a smart software tool for relevant authorities, which will have multiple functions: prevention, mitigation, prediction, communication. The smart georeferenced visualization tool will be supported by dynamic information (drones, ICT, sensors, meteo) and other static localized information.

    We are looking for partners in the segment of FIREFIGHTING, CIVIL PROTECTION, MANAGEMENT BODIES of protected areas which are authorized for preventive actions and would be able to utilize our solution; SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTIONS with the know how in METEOROLOGY/FIRE PROPAGATION MODELS and similar.
    We are looking for partners ONLY from CYPRUS, FRANCE, GREECE, ITALY, MALTA, PORTUGAL, SLOVENIA, SPAIN.

    Thank you, best regards,
    Natasa Osrecki

    Dear Natasa,

    I’m Lucia and I’m writing to you from the Centre of Integrated Geomorphology for the Mediterranean Area (CGIAM), an Italian scientific body of public law engaged in the definition of scientific methodologies, technological development, and implementation of tools and services for the observation, analysis, and monitoring of territory and environment to mitigate the damages from natural hazards, first of all, hydrogeological-environmental risks.

    Your project idea sounds very interesting to us. In this regard, we have coordinated SPRINt, a project funded by an Italian foundation aimed at defining different methodologies for monitoring the phenomenon of forest fires, such as the selection of satellite data processing algorithms for delimiting burnt areas, the study of the burn severity and the recovery capacity of the burnt areas using satellite data, etc. Particular attention was paid to modeling relating to the determination of fire behavior which led to the elaboration of a series of layers to spatially characterize the parameters of fire behavior. One line of research concerned the in-depth study of procedures and algorithms for the optimal definition of a Fire and Hazard Risk Map. The study was applied to a National Park, so we would like to capitalize on our experience in a wider geographical context, such as the Mediterranean one.
    Among our expertise in the field of environmental and forest sciences, we also have those you are researching, in particular, the study of forest systems, the implementation of ecological models, the multitemporal analysis of natural systems using climate and satellite data, the impacts of anthropogenic activities on natural systems, the analysis of the degradation phenomena of natural systems (forest decline, erosion, desertification, etc.).

    Dear Natasa
    ARC Applied Research Center (Centro Ricerche Applicate) is an Italian tech company focused on sensing and biosensing research and industrial development. ARC designed and tested an air sampler that proved to enhance sensitivity of volatile explosives affinity sensors intended for civil security. The automatic air sampler can readily be applied to other sensing applications in which volatile target molecules are involved, and its size can be tailored to fit portable and handheld device

    I think if you’re willing to develop software to accelerate your working process and take your project to a new level, you can consider working with specialists from hybrid software development company Uran. They provided me with a great business solution, and I’m sure they’ll manage to help you as well

    Good afternoon,

    I am writing to you on behalf of the Department of Comparative Biomedicine and Nutrition at the University of Padua. It would be necessary to go deeper into the structure of the project, but professors and researchers could contribute to the development of innovations for food quality, preservation, product origin, and the reuse of production chain waste for the circular economy.

    Hi, Natasa

    I am writing on behalf of GAL Molise verso 2000, situated in region of Molise (Italy).
    GAL is a limited liability consortium company founded in 1994 with the aim of designing, implementing and managing initiatives in the field of Local, National and European development.

    I propose as we could offer technical assistance and coordination service for the development of project especially if Italian parters are involved.
    Our working group has certified experience in the sector also and above all regarding European projects.

    For further info you can contact the following addresses:

    Dear Luca,

    I am writing on behalf of Municipality of Heraklion of Crete (Greece), to express that we are deeply interested in investing on disaster and risk management. It is currently a top priority because we are on very high-risk locality. Thus, we expect to develop strategies for all types of disasters and risks. Also beside strategies, we are looking to integrate systems such as GIS etc., and looking forward to examine new innovative solutions.

    Kind Regards,

    Maria tsagkataki

    Dear Natasa,

    My name is Charalampos Paganis, and I am the Communications Manager at “Action for Civil Society”, a Civil not for Profit organization dedicated to addressing the needs of civil society within Europe.

    Our organization has secured approval for 12 projects over the past 18 months, a testament to the expertise of our team members who have extensive experience in various industry sectors as supervisors and project managers.

    This milestone paves the way for significant activities planned in the near future, and we are poised to execute these projects with unwavering dedication and competence.

    We offer substantial experience in working with youth, prioritizing nurturing young individuals in education, entrepreneurship, employability, and capacity building:

    Our e-learning platforms serve both educational purposes and as meeting points for job seekers and entities, thereby enriching community value by reducing unemployment.

    We are advocates of gamification in education, which has proven effective and accessible for both students and educators, transforming entertainment into a learning tool.

    Currently, we are drafting applications under the INTERREG MED and would like to suggest that your expertise could greatly enhance our project ideas. We believe a collaboration could be mutually beneficial and invite you to join us in this opportunity.

    You can find our detailed presentation here: AFCS Presentation

    Please let us know your thoughts on our collaboration proposal.

    Please contact us in: charpag@actionforcivilsociety.org in order to arrange an online meeting to discuss how we can start working together.

    Looking forward to a great start for our organizations!

    With warm regards,

    Charalampos Paganis
