Abstract

This report is the third reiteration in an ongoing series dedicated to identifying and examining evolving trends relevant for civil protection. It offers an overview of relevant trends that are expected to have a substantial impact on Switzerland and its civil protection system over the next five to ten years. The report is part of the Federal Office of Civil Protection’s (FOCP) initiative to strengthen horizon scanning capabilities in the field of civil protection, which is a dynamic field that requires continuous adjustment. It underscores the importance of early detection and assessment of emerging challenges and opportunities, particularly for policymakers and other stakeholders. The primary objective of this report is to provide a solid basis for adapting and enhancing civil protection strategies on the three levels of government (federal, cantonal, communal). It aims to be a valuable tool to identify key areas for investment, improvement, and strategic prioritization.
