During the meeting, the project Partners – representatives of University of Innsbruck, Austrian Red Cross, British Red Cross, Bulgarian Red Cross, Croatian Red Cross and Latvian Red Cross – shared their experiences with the results of the project activities so far (development of recommendations, community-based exercaises and events in host countries, etc.), and agreed on the plans for implementation of the project until the beginning of 2016.
