Poland Gets €76M EU Aid for 2024 Flood Recovery
By Oskar Malec | Last Updated: 11 Jul 2025

The funding is a part of a more expansive €280 million package, authorized by the European Parliament, that is intended to assist six Central European countries that were ravaged last fall by unusual weather.

Flood Assistance for Six Countries
In addition to Poland, the EU will also provide finance for the other five countries —Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Czech Republic, Moldova, and Slovakia — from the EU Solidarity Fund. This fund was established in 2022, to assist EU Member States and accession States during natural crises.

The biggest portion of the aid, €194.2 million, will be provided to Moldova, with €114 million for the Czech Republic. Poland, which received €76 million will use the money to mend public infrastructure, including roads, schools, and bridges, which were impacted by the floods.

Flood Damage Across Central Europe
The floods, which hit in September 2024, originated in Austria and the Czech Republic and then spread through Central Europe, to Poland. In October, flash floods and landslides further devastated Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The EU Solidarity Fund is a central instrument to accompany immediate and longer-term recovery in the aftermath of disasters. Since opening, it has disbursed almost €10 billion in disaster relief in 24 countries in response to 136 natural disasters.


The new money will also aid affected regions to recover faster and to rebuild vital infrastructure damaged in last year's catastrophic floods.
