The PROTECT community platform

PROTECT seeks to support urgent action for climate adaptation and mitigation through innovation procurement procedures. It specifically aims to enable public authorities from different European regions to collaborate on a joint pre-commercial procurement.

This platform aims at hosting the PROTECT community of public buyers and procurers and provide them with a safe and user-friendly space to learn, develop share and exchange ideas and good practices.

We have exciting news!

Following the success of the PROTECT project (June 2022 - June 2024), which focused on leveraging Earth observation technology to address climate adaptation needs, we are now launching its follow-up Pre-Commercial Procurement initiative: the PCP-WISE project, officially kicking off in January 2025. The PCP-WISE project is all about pushing the boundaries of water management innovations to build climate resilience across Europe As part of our new PCP-WISE project, we are transitioning to a new platform hosted on the ENRICH GLOBAL Community Platform. This move will enhance our collaboration capabilities and bring even more opportunities for stakeholder engagement. To continue staying connected and informed, we invite you to join the new PCP-WISE Community.

Warm regards,
The PROTECT / PCP-WISE Team.
