The Knowledge Network is a hub that connects first responders, disaster risk managers, scientists, and decision-makers and matches their needs for expertise and good practices with methodologies, tools, solutions, and resources.

It's an inclusive community whose members can learn from each other, share their knowledge, and work together.

• Vision : That the Union Civil Protection Mechanism and its community have the knowledge and expertise to effectively prevent, prepare for and respond to current and emerging risks and challenges in disaster risk management.
• Mission : To bring together civil protection and disaster risk management experts and organisations, make knowledge on civil protection and disaster risk management accessible to all, and foster innovation for efficient and effective civil protection systems.
• Goals : Strategic goals include: Stronger Community (through better collaboration), Shared Knowledge for Action (through learning and working together) and Research that Matters (through stronger application of research in planning and operations).
