Documentation, Training and Transfer of Knowledge for Civil Protection
The project TASK FORCE aims at improving the effectiveness with which civil protection is delivered, both in preventive and reactive terms, through: • Networking, exchange of know-how and best practices • Raising Awareness on civil protection via education campaigns and the internet • Training and capacity building • Development and pilot application of a civil protection school education programme • Design and development of a Web-site for the project and the monitoring of civil protection issues in the Archimed area As civil protection mechanisms are primarily aimed at functioning on a national level, a recent EU communication has highlighted the need for more training and better communication and coordination between national agencies. As ARCHIMED areas share similar threats, the scope of this project is to bring together experience in dealing with similar civil protection situations, thus creating significant multiplier effects on project outcomes.
