February news

In the beginning of February, we were all deeply affected by the devastating earthquake in Turkiye and Syria. The EU Civil Protection Mechanism UCPM was activated and we were proud to see many of our team members deployed as well as all PPRD East 3 participating states Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine deploying teams. This terrible disaster was a firm reminder how important our job in civil protection is and how working together save lives. From a programme perspective, we have continued to conduct several training of trainers, workshops as well as hosting our third Steering Committee Meeting and the mid-term planning conference for the Full Scale exercise.

Season's greetings

Another year has come to an end and the PPRD East 3 team would like to take the opportunity to thank all partners for an eventful and successful year of implementation. The decline of the global COVID-19 pandemic has enabled us to finally meet in person again, a much awaited development, which has reinforced the partnership building within the programme with a more personal touch. It has been wonderful to see the engagement from all participants taken part in different trainings and workshops throughout the year, and it has been particularly heartening to see our friends from Ukraine taking part in some of the activities as well.
