EUROPEAN ISLANDS ONE HEALTH OBSERVATORY

CONTRIBUTE TO THE OBSERVATORY

Help us build better evidence on emergency response across European Union islands.

If your organisation responds to, coordinates or documents emergencies on EU islands, your evidence can help us understand them better.

WHY YOUR CONTRIBUTION MATTERS

The H1 2026 analysis identified significant gaps in publicly available operational information.

Response Time could be measured in only 2 of 71 verified events, while Intervention Duration could be measured in only 3.

Direct contributions from organisations involved in emergency response can help improve the quality and completeness of the evidence available for future analysis.

WHO CAN CONTRIBUTE?

We welcome contributions from organisations directly involved in responding to, coordinating or documenting emergency events on European Union islands.

Public Authorities · Emergency Medical Services · Hospitals & Healthcare Organisations · Fire & Rescue Services · Civil Protection · Coast Guards & Maritime Rescue · Mountain & Technical Rescue · Veterinary Services · Environmental & Wildlife Authorities · NGOs & Voluntary Rescue Organisations · Research & Academic Institutions

You do not need to be a partner of the Observatory to contribute evidence.
