We are thrilled to share that on Friday 13th October, we joined the IN4SAFETY project kick-off meeting, a transformative initiative aimed at strengthening cross-border cooperation for a more resilient territory in the face of emergencies. The project is funded under the Interreg Italy-Slovenia Programme. The project aims at enhancing transnational cooperation in developing and implementing joint action plans for emergencies in the cross-border area.
IN4SAFETY addresses the common challenge of disaster prevention and climate change mitigation, also in light of the recent experiences involving the wildfires in the cross-border Carso region in the summer of 2022.
The project’s ultimate goal is to promote climate resilience and disaster risk prevention by reinforcing cross-border cooperation between local authorities and rescue teams.
Natural disasters don’t recognize borders, and the consequences affect the entire cross-border area. That’s why transnational cooperation is not only essential, but rather imperative.
The project approach is built on strengthening institutional cooperation through the development of joint action plans and collaborative training to enhance responsiveness in times of natural disasters. Another great opportunity to work on resilience building practices and to work towards safer, more prepared communities.
Together with our partners Municipality of Ajdovscina, Gasilska Enota Nova Gorica, Municipality of Duino-Aurisina, Geodetic Institute of Slovenia, Città Metropolitana di Venezia, Università degli Studi di Trieste, and associated partners, we are part of a project that transcends borders and brings together crucial organisations, all working towards a safer, more resilient future.
Stay tuned for updates as we make meaningful strides in building a safer and more resilient community!
