An Integrated Wildfire Risk Management Strategy for the EU: developing resilient landscapes and safer communities

The paper proposes that the European Union should adopt a strategy and framework to manage wildfire risk jointly and in an integrated manner. This strategy could build upon the Landscape Fire Governance Framework (LFGF) which was developed in 2023. The proposal was developed jointly by the researchers and practitioners of four large research and innovation
actions, namely FirEUrisk, FIRE-RES, SILVANUS and TREEADS, which brought together about 120 different organisations, many of which encompass several decades of experience in investigating and managing wildfire risk inside and outside the European Union.
