The EU Global Threats programme supports a range of projects that tackle complex security challenges worldwide. These initiatives address issues such as terrorism, organised crime, CBRN risks, critical infrastructure protection, and climate-related security threats.
Since its launch, the programme has funded over 80 projects in 130 countries, working closely with governments, civil society, regional organisations, and international partners. Each project is designed to strengthen resilience, promote cooperation, and deliver practical solutions tailored to local and regional needs.
By combining specialised expertise from diverse sectors the EU Global Threats programme provides effective and sustainable responses to interconnected security threats.
