The call will support project proposals submitted under the following Priority R&D and Innovation Topics:

  • Geodynamic Research and Socio-Economic, Social, and Environmental Widespread Effects of Earthquakes
  • Digital Technologies and Devices for Earthquake Preparedness
  • Construction Models and Waste Management for Earthquake Resistance
  • Scenario, Prediction, and Analysis Studies for Earthquake Management

The deadline for completing online applications is April 1, 2024, 23:59, and the deadline for the electronic signature of completed applications is April 4, 2024, 23:59.
