Annual SafeGreece Conference on "New Technologies & Civil Protection" 24-26 November 2021 Event

Since 2014 the annual Conference was organized in different venues of Greece each time keeping the same objective. In 2021, for second consecutive year, SafeGreece took advantage of the new technologies for a fully on-line Conference.

The "8th International Conference on Civil Protection and New Technologies - Safe Greece 2021" brought in contact people from Science and Technology, Local Governments and Central Administration, Private Sector and Voluntary Organizations from Greece and abroad aiming to:
- strengthen interdisciplinary and cooperation in Civil Protection, as times demand,
- utilize various new technological achievements for the benefit of Civil Protection,
- exchange of experience, lessons learned and good practices,
- discuss on contemporary challenges about Civil Protection

This year, giving special importance to the dissemination of knowledge, events fully open to society and workshops especially for Local Government Civil Protection officers were planned.

DRMKC was invited to present during the session of "invited talks" on 24 November, to share the outcomes of the "Science for Disaster Risk Management 2020 - Acting Today, Protecting Tomorrow", which summarizes the state of relevant science from a European perspective. The 2020 report approached the DRM cycle through the impacts and assets at risk perspective. The analysis centred on the consequences of disasters on these assets.
