11-13 March 2015, So�a, Bulgaria

Due to the increasing climate variability and more frequent industrial accidents over the last few years, issues like emergency, rescue-, safety management and control attain extreme signi�cance for the Region of South-East Europe. These topics will be considered as a new section in the SE European Environmental Exhibitions & Forum that will be held in 2015 from 11 to 13 March in So�a, Bulgaria.

The objectives of ‘Save the Life’ are to increase the awareness of the international disaster experience and to transfer the knowledge of international response systems and coordination mechanisms. This will help for better teamwork capability in the rescue teams and sharing the existing know-how. South-East Europe has experienced nearly all types of natural disasters during the last few years. They have cross-border e�ects and can potentially threaten entire areas in neighboring countries.

The invited visitors are experts in the �eld of emergency management: infrastructure operators, senior managers and decision makers from public authorities and private companies.

The parallel Conference will provide attendees with practical advice concerning the prevention, disaster preparedness and reactions, damage recovery, etc. The concept of disaster �nancing will be also discussed. The public demand for information on natural hazard risks has grown explosively in recent years.
