Transfer of knowledge and skills in chemical and ecological rescue

Closed

The strategic goal of the project is to increase the cross-border cooperation of fire and rescue services operating on both sides of the Lithuanian-Polish border in order to develop more integrated and better quality governance and services to deal with disasters’ response and damage control, ensuring the safety of border residents, property and the environment. Implementation of this project is important because of the existing need to organise joint exercises and trainings, purchase of the lacking equipment as well as development and deepen knowledge and abilities in the field of chemical and environmental rescure services. The main problem is lack of equipment, joint exercises and insufficient transfer of knowledge between the services, therefore the proposed solutions include organisation of theoretical and practical trainings, supply of the rescue services in the border region with special chemical and ecological rescue equipment and facilities.
