Force majeure applies to KA2 activities which could not be started or completed due to an unforeseeable exceptional situation or event beyond the individual participant's control. It is not attributed to error nor negligence on the participant's part. Such situations can arise at any time including factors such as sudden disease, accidents, death, earthquakes and other causes beyond the control of the participant.

While creating or editing an activity, when the checkbox Force Majeure is checked the comment field Force Majeure Explanations must be completed. The justifications for indicating the activity as Force Majeure should be added here.
