Development and maintenance of rescEU CBRN stockpiles in Poland

ongoing

The globalization of markets, the continuous development of the chemical industry, the fast and unlimited possibilities of population movement increase chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats. In addition, recent years related to the SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic and the Russian attack on Ukraine have generated a great demand for personal protective equipment and equipment for identifying CBRN threats. The proposal in this proposal for the establishment and maintenance of stocks (mainly PPE and CBRN threat identification equipment) will allow the protection of assets and equipment in the event of CBRN disasters, including the inventory of unintentional and deliberate disasters - reference scenarios. Maintaining stocks that meet European standards will allow them to be used by rescuers from Poland and the entire European Union. This will increase the level of preparedness for CBRN disasters and threats and the level of response capacity.
