From June 20, 2025, any phone and tablet sold in the European Union must display a repairability label graded from A (easy to repair) to E (nearly impossible to repair). ^[1] By July 31, 2026, all EU member states, including Romania, must transpose the EU Right to Repair Directive into national law. ^[2] The EU legislation prohibits manufacturers from using software to block the functioning of non-original or used spare parts, a practice known as 'part pairing'. ^[3] The Right to Repair Directive obliges manufacturers to repair phones, tablets, washing machines and fridges on consumer request even after the warranty expires, if technically possible, and offers a 12-month warranty extension on repairs. ^[4] GDACS (Global Disaster Awareness and Coordination System) is a cooperation framework that brings together the United Nations, the European Commission, and disaster managers worldwide. ^[5] The GDACS framework aims to improve awareness, information exchange, and coordination during the first phase after major sudden-onset disasters. ^[6] GDACS monitors and provides information on disaster types including earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, cyclones, volcanoes, droughts, and forest fires. ^[7] The Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Cmmission disclaims responsibility for any damage or loss resulting from use of the information presented on the GDACS website. ^[8]
