In the wake of recent global geopolitical events, the role of first responders has become even more critical in confronting current events as they navigate complex situations and making crucial decisions in real-time. From the harrowing rescue efforts in flood zones to the tense standoffs in response to terrorist threats, and the critical response during incidents.
Join us at the ‘Centres of Excellence’ Conference, a critical forum focused on the pivotal role of first responders in the Safety, Security, Defence, Emergency Preparedness, and Crisis Management, sectors. This year's conference will be held in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and will address the interoperable role of the first responder in light of the increasing challenges posed by natural disasters, geopolitical tensions, and evolving threats.
The conference will host world class researchers and speakers from the fields of Fire Management, Anti-Terrorism, Safety & Security. Additionally, practical case studies will be analysed to draw lessons and improve future interoperable response to major incidents.
