PLANNING MEETING

The planning meeting for the Leon Modex Forest Fire Exercise took place from 22 to 24 February in Madrid and was

hosted in the National School of Civil Protection (ENPC).

Exercise planning and management team, trainers and representatives of the participating teams had three days of

scenario discussions, planning and site visits to be able to provide the incoming modules the best learning

opportunities.

We are looking forward for the participants to arrive for this Modex mission close to Astorga, Leon from 9 to 13 of May

2022.

THE EXERCISE For three days the Castilla y Leon province hosted an European Civil Protection exercise focused on forest fires, with the participation of 9 specialized capacities, six modules from Croatia, Greece, France, Italy, Portugal and 3 from Spain. Ground conditions and excellent set up created a very challenging environment, providing a perfect learning opportunity and giving the modules the possibility to interact and cooperate not only in the field operations, but also in the planning phase of the mission. For all the effort, we are very grateful to the host of this great event, the Minister of Ecological Transition and Demographical Challenges (MITECO), Junta de Castilla y León (JCLyL) and Directorate General for Civil Protection and Emergencies (DGPCyE), with the support of external partners Tragsa and Tragsatec. #EUCivilProtection #EUSavesLives #EUCPM
