National Protection and Rescue Directorate, Croatia (Coordinator) University of Belgrade, Faculty of Security Studies, Serbia (Beneficiary) Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency, Sweden (Beneficiary) University of Applied Sciences Velika Gorica, Croatia (Beneficiary)
Implementation: Croatia, Serbia, Sweden Duration: 18 months (01/01/2015 – 30/06/2016) Total eligible cost: 408.675 € (EC financial contribution 75% of total -
306.506 € ) NPRD forms 3 expert teams for implementation of the Project
About project RECIPE A deficient or inadequate protection of critical infrastructure may pose a threat to the security, economy and stability of European countries and Europe as a whole. This project aims to turn it into advantage providing opportunities for the exchange of divergent know-hows and best practices. Accordingly, it aims to involve EU Member States with varying levels of progress within CIP area together with a candidate country so that the EU achievements are spread beyond its borders for a strengthened security of all. The project thus engages countries at three different levels of achievement in the field, namely Sweden boasting significant progress and distinctive results in CIP, Croatia who has only just initiated CIP-related efforts and Serbia who is lagging behind and is in need of peer assistance in establishing their own CIP system.
Kick off meeting, Brussels, January 20th, 2015
The project intends to strengthen the resilience of critical infrastructure protection systems both at national and European level by filling the gaps in the management and protection of critical infrastructure caused by the following situations:
Scarce and inadequate transfer of knowledge, experiences and best practices among Member States,
Lack of support, communication and cooperation between relevant public and private sectors,
Lack of levelled quality CIP solutions throughout the EU as assessed per project partner countries,
Insufficient and inadequate involvement of academic community and the resulting lack of scientific and research activity in the field of critical infrastructure risk management.
Objective
Kick off meeting, Brussels, January 20th, 2015
Kick off meeting, Brussels, January 20th, 2015
Actions 1(2)
1) Panel discussions at national levels producing national standpoints on the following topics: Assessment of the current national CIP-related legislation and practices Assessment of vulnerabilities and threats to CIP system; Assessment of applicability of available risk analysis models and tools, Analysis of critical infrastructure interdependencies and identification/review Challenges of setting up procedural strategies aimed at enhanced cooperation and communication
between national stakeholders and between relevant stakeholders at international level (ECIs), Study of the future modalities of efficient experience exchange and transfer of knowledge among
relevant stakeholders, as well as defining sensitive information exchange mechanisms;
2) Joint workshops, where international stakeholders, on the basis of national standpoints framed at the above panel discussions will exchange their experiences and best practices that will be collected into Instructions/Guidelines on an
improved and more efficient CI risk management; create Guidelines based on Feasibility studies assessing best practice implementation applicability per
each country;

Actions 2(2)
3) International conference, integrating all the results of the efforts throughout the project and providing conclusions for the follow-up strategy on CIP in general and on the following topics in particular:
Management of public-private partnership in the protection of critical infrastructure; Challenges and mechanisms of sensitive information exchange among the stakeholders in critical
infrastructure protection system; Setting preconditions for the development of national CIP Centres;
4) Follow-up strategy, defining
guidelines implementation schemes, future cooperation modalities and solutions on any other needs in the CI management system
(e.g. training etc.)
Kick off meeting, Brussels, January 20th, 2015
Expected results Facilitated exchange of knowledge, experiences and best practices among Member States and
beyond, Increased awareness of and knowledge base on disaster risks threatening critical infrastructure
and disaster prevention, Enhanced stakeholder communication both at national and international level, Strengthened mutual support and collaboration between all relevant public and private sector
critical infrastructure protection partners, Boosted scientific and research activity in the field of critical infrastructure risk management as an
outcome of encouraged involvement of academic community in problem solving processes, Guidelines prepared intended to pave the way for the establishment of an optimal risk management
system related to CIP in the project partner countries (where missing), Guidelines made available to the EC for further dissemination and use; Increased resilience and level of protection of European CI resulting from improved coordination
and cooperation between stakeholders and from the exchange of best practices, System approach assessment methodology for CIP established, taking into consideration cross-
sectorial and cross border dimension of critical infrastructures, Defined follow-up strategy on CIP in the relevant countries, Assessed and defined needs for further education and training of public and private sectors in the
related area (educational programmes, exchange of experts).
