Disaster response teams

On initiative of the Red Cross, each Red Cross branch formed a team for disaster response, comprised of 10 volunteers and 10 substitutes. The first training seminar was held in Struga. The teams had an opportunity to follow lectures and practical exercises for exploring the subject of disasters, types of disasters and coping with disasters, basic logistics, practical work – camp building, communication and information with practical exercises, assessment, before, during and after disaster strikes, first aid, psychological support, etc. The working meetings and trainings with the teams contributed for the organizational and professional training.
