(48)PRIORITY AXIS 3 – STRENGTHENING THE TERRITORY’S RESILIENCE TO RISKS OF NATURAL, CLIMATE AND HUMAN ORIGIN

(54)2.A.6/5b - Actions to be supported under the investment priority 5b

(55)2.A.6.1 Description of the type and examples of actions to be supported and their expected contribution to the specific objectives, including, where appropriate, identification of the main target groups, specific territories targeted and types of beneficiaries

• 
  Development of actions to prevent risks (environmental monitoring and prevention systems; tools to improve governance and coordination, crisis and emergency management and responses; tools for early detection; early warning systems; mapping; risk assessment, including transnational actions in the framework of the Flood directive (Directive 2007/60/EC) i.e. on emergency plans, flood risk assessment, and flood risk management plans looking at prevention, protection and preparedness. etc.
  
• 
  Coordination of the use of Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) and surveillance systems to support threat and emergency response, coordinated use of IT infrastructure necessary to allow information sharing and interoperability between national surveillance networks and the Common Information sharing Environment at EU level
  
• 
  Development of education and awareness-raising tools related to prevention and management of risks
  
• 
  Development of local community and business leaders empowerment to risk prevention, and recovery and regeneration actions
  
• 
  Development and implementation of environmental management systems by the private sector and companies
  
• 
  Networking of technical and scientific resources available in the European Atlantic Area: joint production of data on the evolution of the coastline to facilitate its measurement along the Atlantic coast, based on comparable data.
  
• 
  Development of capacity-building initiatives directed at actors involved in managing and preventing risks
  
• 
  Dissemination of data and risk management tools
  
• 
  Promote the interlinking of regional, coastal and ocean observation and maritime safety and coastal structures and their forecasting models
  
• 
  Development of methodologies and technologies for the study, procedures, evaluation and compensation of damages linked to risks under this objective
  
• 
  Practical 'on-the-ground' demonstrations of new techniques and processes
  

The operations will aim to raise awareness and to put in place common surveillance, prevention and risk management strategies and tools contributing to improve Atlantic territories’ awareness and preparedness to cope with threats and risks derived from climate change and economic activity. The actions undertaken will also ensure that these common practices are integrated in regional policies and actions contributing to improving the implementation of regional development policies and programmes in this field.

Moreover, actions aiming at empowering the local communities will also allow improving risk prevention, recovery and regeneration actions and strategies contributing to reinforce the safety and security of the population and ecosystems, strengthening resilience and planning capacity of Atlantic Regions for the management of natural risks and the consequences deriving from climate change and economic activities.

The main types of beneficiaries will be:

• 
  National, regional and local public authorities and communities dealing with risk issues
  
• 
  Transnational, regional and local development agencies and organisations
  
• 
  Regional and local environmental agencies
  
• 
  Universities, research institutes and innovation centres
  
• 
  Environmental protection organisations and NGOs
  
• 
  Local communities
  
• 
  Civil society associations
  
• 
  Economic sectors related to risks and risk management
