Wildfire Peer Review Assessment Framework (Wildfire PRAF)

The Wildfire Peer Review Assessment Framework (Wildfire PRAF) is a tool designed to support comprehensive reviews of disaster risk management and civil protection systems, with a focus on the risk associated with large-scale unplanned or uncontrolled fires affecting natural, cultural, industrial, and residential landscapes (UNDRR, 2021).

It is based on the Peer Review Assessment Framework (PRAF) developed under the Union Civil Protection Mechanism (UCPM) Peer review programme 2020-2024. The Wildfire PRAF is meant to guide sound reviews on wildfire risk management systems at the national and/or sub-national level in Member States, Participating States, enlargement and neighbourhood countries, under the EU’s Civil Protection Mechanism legislation.
