Improving capabilities of law enforcement to counter climate-related challenges

In short

This is a Research and Innovation Action under Horizon Europe. The budget is €8 million for about 2 grants of €4 million each. It is paid as a lump sum, so you report results instead of costs. Deadline: 5 November 2026.

What the call wants to achieve

• Police Authorities in Europe are equipped with specialised skills and technologies to counter an increase in illegal activities related to the climate change and the emergence of new (opportunistic) criminal patterns
• Improved understanding by policymakers of the effects of climate change on law enforcement with a view of developing related effective European policies
• improved knowledge of the impacts of climate change phenomena on social dynamics which can raise demands from public authorities to keep public order, moving beyond traditional perspectives about crime and terrorism.
