The Spanish FIRE-RES Innovation Day is set to take place on 1 July 2025 at Casa Convalescència, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) in Barcelona, Spain, bringing together experts and stakeholders from across Europe to address the growing challenges of wildfire management.
Organised by the EU-funded FIRE-RES project, a European-wide initiative on integrated wildfire management, the event aims to foster collaboration across the fields of research, policy, technology, and practice. It will serve as a platform for exchanging insights and presenting forward-thinking solutions designed to enhance wildfire resilience.
The Innovation Day will feature a series of dynamic sessions focused on high-impact strategies for wildfire preparedness, response, and mitigation. A central component of the programme will include a workshop dedicated to the current and future applications of data in wildfire innovation, highlighting how information-driven approaches are shaping the future of crisis management. Attendees will also have the opportunity to engage with a showcase of cutting-edge tools developed to support wildfire management, as well as participate in interactive workstations and partnership-building activities.
The event is expected to attract a diverse group of participants, including researchers, policymakers, emergency response professionals, and technology developers. Organisers anticipate engaging discussions and collaborative exchanges that will contribute to advancing innovative approaches to wildfire challenges across Europe.
