innovative projects for the population

The newly elected President of the Austrian Civil Protection Association, No. Mag. Andreas Hanger, praised the pioneering role of Upper Austria civil protection in Austria. Numerous projects were presented that range from the children's warning vest campaign to security Olympiads to emergency plan consultations. The "Safety Goes To School" initiative, which is continued due to its success, shows the association's commitment, especially in the field of education. Another important step was to found the subsidiary "Civil and Disaster Protection Purchasing and Service GmbH", which runs an online shop for security products. This measure aims to promote the stock as an essential component of self -provision and simply explain the opportunities for self -help to the citizens. The civil protection SMS has also established itself as an important crisis communication means.
