Description (EN):

Zemgale and Siauliai regions have already implemented the first phase of this project within the framework of the INTERREG III A Programme for the 2006-2008 period. Phase II is based on two main goals achieved during Phase I, which is the development of a Risk Management System Strategy and a Risk Management Information System. Key project achievements include the developing and/or updating of civil defence plans of regional and local municipalities, an improved Risk Management Information System (including the creation of a data base, a geographical information system, a pilot GPS navigation system and intelligent transport management system), and improved risk management infrastructure (including upgraded IT technology, ambulance fleet and transport for emergency operations on water). The project is fostering the creation of effective cross-border co-operation in emergency situations, thus improving the safety of citizens, property and physical assets on both sides of the border. During the project two equipped emergency cars were procured and premises of the Siauliai city emergency medical centre were renovated.
