The main objective of the project is to increase the capacity of local authorities for forest protection and wildfire response, making them more resilient to potential natural disasters. Within this framework, a comprehensive training programme was organised for municipal staff to improve preparedness for wildfires and strengthen response skills in the district of Pozantı.
The training, held on 14–15 November 2024, focused on rapid and effective fire response methods, measures to be taken before and after a fire, use of equipment, firefighting techniques and coordination within teams. Information was also provided on preventive strategies to minimise fire risks. The sessions were delivered interactively by expert trainers and offered participants practical exercises in addition to theoretical information.
