Beta-Verlag – the Bonn-based publisher of the respected trade journal CRISIS PREVENTION (CP) – has been successfully organizing conferences on civil protection for several year s, and is now, for the very first time, staging a civil protection symposium as part of INTERSCHUTZ.

The symposium will be held in June 2022 iat the Convention Center. The presentations and sessions will run from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on both days. Each day, after a shared lunch, the attendees will have the opportunity to spend the afternoon at INTERSCHUTZ, meeting up with representatives of companies that provide the vehicles, technologies and services necessary for modern civil protection.

In terms of topics, the first day will deal with cross-border cooperation in disaster situations, focusing on Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

The second day will focus on the civil protection challenges posed by extremes of weather, such as blizzards, floods, droughts and wildfires. These topics are becoming increasingly important in light of climate change and require coordination and connection between and among aid agencies and government institutions at both national and international level.

The "Transcending Borders" civil protection symposium is aimed primarily at leaders from public-sector authorities and agencies with responsibility for safety and security and decision-makers from fire departments and aid organizations.

Program

The full program for the civil protection symposium at INTERSCHUTZ will be published on this website in spring 2022. The symposium will be moderated by Benno Fritzen, a civil protection expert and former Fire Chief of the German city of Münster.
