What happened

The European Centre for Disaster Medicine (ECDM) participated in the change-of-command ceremony of the Italian NBC Defense School in Rieti, thereby furthering its collaborative efforts with the School. The latter constitutes a strategic hub that assumes a pivotal role in the chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) training of military and civilian personnel alike. In so doing, it plays a crucial part in the advancement of national security and cooperation through the implementation of advanced directives, seminars and research collaborations, thereby contributing to the enhancement of international preparedness in the field of CBRN risk. The ECDM evinces a willingness to implement specialised training and knowledge sharing through joint initiatives with the objective of improving national and international preparedness in the field of CBRN risk.
