The UCPM was activated 30 times in 2014, in response mostly to natural disasters, but also to nine man-made disasters (civil unrest, conflicts, oil pollution and accidents).
Enamasti reageeriti loodusõnnetustele, ent ka üheksale inimtegevusest tingitud katastroofile (rahvarahutused, konfliktid, naftareostus ja õnnetused).
