  • Introduction

The EUCPM framework
The Profound Exercise project marks a significant milestone as the inaugural initiative to execute a comprehensive, multi-location full-scale exercise within the framework of the EU Civil Protection Mechanism (EUCPM). All participating units originate from areas prone to flooding, which are anticipated to encounter substantial challenges in the future. While these units possess prior national or cross-border deployment experience, additional training is required to grasp the operational landscape of the EUCPM. The fundamental objective of the EU Civil Protection Mechanism is to bolster collaboration among the EU Member States and six Participating States in the realm of civil protection. This collaboration aims to enhance prevention, preparedness, and responses to disasters. In situations where an emergency surpasses a country's response capabilities, it can seek aid via the Mechanism. The European Commission, through this Mechanism, assumes a crucial role in orchestrating disaster responses across Europe and beyond, covering at least 75% of the transportation and operational expenses of deployments. Disasters are indiscriminate, disregarding borders, and have the potential to strike one or multiple countries suddenly and unexpectedly. A coordinated joint response simplifies the process for overwhelmed national authorities, providing a single point of contact rather than multiple entities to manage. This joint approach amalgamates the expertise and capacities of initial responders, reducing redundant relief efforts and ensuring that aid is tailored to meet the needs of those affected. The Mechanism plays a pivotal role in coordinating disaster preparedness and prevention activities of national authorities, contributing significantly to the exchange of best practices. This fosters the continuous development of elevated common standards, enabling teams to comprehend diverse approaches and seamlessly collaborate when disaster strikes.
