NEW! AFAN Toolkit of resources
Harmonised framework of competences, capacities and skills.
Collaborations, agreements and opportunities between organisations.
The target participants are fire analysts, European civil protection experts and organizations, fire and rescue services, regional public agencies, volunteer organisations responsible of wildfire risk management, existing networks national or international, fire training centres, forestry agencies, researchers and related SMEs and EU funded projects.
AFAN offers a hub to all participants to share best wildfire assessment knowledge, experiences and science between agencies and countries, and provide remote assessment support during wildfire management.
Additionally, the network will provide an opportunity to develop novel approaches to address the needs and challenges expected in the future, and proposes bottom-up actions between the network participant organisations leading to a general improvement of the operational capacities of responders.
