Emergency services operate very differently across continents. Even within the same country, there can be differences in the structure, technologies and procedures of each organisation. Facing a variety of challenges, emergency response requires continuous adaptation and improvements.

In this ever-changing context, EENA has decided to launch a new series of webinars that will focus on emergency communications reforms in European countries.

 In June, officials from SOS Alarm and Swedish Civil Contingency Agency (MSB) shared their experience and plans with the EENA community.

What have we learnt?

  • How are emergency calls handled and by which organisations;
  • Status of eCall, public warning system, Advanced Mobile Location, transnational database;
  • Ongoing and future projects, reforms, upgrades;
  • …and much more
