PROJECT RECALL: RESILIENT EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES AGAINST LOCAL LANDSLIDES

Abstract

RECALL was a two-year project, running from May 2015 to April 2017, which was co-funded by the European Commission, Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection Department (ECHO). Five partners from five different European countries worked together within this project to design and implement smart, community based solutions supporting local authorities in the better planning and implementation of the landslide and disaster prevention measures in their territories. The RECALL project aims to take a step forward in risk prevention and mitigation through mutual cooperation and the application of cost-effective measures. However, it is evident that a comprehensive solution for the monitoring of the movement of landslides and the final restoration of their consequences will require much more financial resources than the ones gained through EU tenders.
