PEACE AND STABILITY

The MoSaiC project will provide new detection capabilities. The goal is to strengthen CBRN DIM platforms to include low-cost chemical and biological monitoring technologies using unmanned systems for chemical and biological monitoring and sampling missions.

The VERTIgO project promotes an integrated approach in the field of relief during conflict or disaster by creating a new harmonized tool that supports the virtualization and simulation of CBRN defense training. The overall goal of the project is to study, create and validate a platform called EESP for the Virtual Reality application of training activities in response to CBRN events.

HFM-NMSG-354 was promoted by NATO with the main objective of developing augmented reality software and hardware for conducting training/training activities for operators in CBRN operations through simulation of multiple practical scenarios.

Project P73 strives to exchange best practices in CBRN disaster prevention, preparedness, and response. The overall objective of the Lebanese component, of which SAFE is the coordinator, is to ensure the protection and operation of the chain of command in the event of CBRN events, particularly of the Prime Minister and the Grand Sérail, home of the Prime Minister’s office.

P73 provides equipment for detection, protection, and decontamination from CBR agents and training on CBRN hazards and warning and detection systems for Grand Sérail personnel.

In the context of the EU CBRN Centers of Excellence (EU CBRN CoE) initiative, under the Patronage of the Prime Minister of Lebanon, ARZ 2023 was developed: a 4-day inter-agency CBRN field exercise that focused on key aspects of detection and first response against CBRN security threats. The main objective of ARZ 2023 is to test the capacities to counter CBRN risks, test emergency response procedures, and identify best practices.

Protecting consumers’ right to health is a fundamental right principle and therefore crucial attention should be devoted to the fight against the criminal phenomena
of counterfeiting and sophistication of food especially along illicit trafficking routes in EaP (Eastern Partnership) countries.
The Operational Action, funded by EUROPOL’s Low-Value Grant, led by the Italian Carabinieri for Healthcare (N.A.S.), and executed within EUROPOL’s OPSON operation, aims to dismantle organised criminal groups engaged in food trafficking at an international level.
The operational action aims at fostering collaboration between EU and EaP countries in the fight against food-related crimes.

eNOVATION focuses on teaching and training for first and second responders and provides them with adequate user-friendly technologies and tools that enable them to improve the global risk assessment on-site and provide better protection to the practitioners and the population potentially exposed. eNOVATION aims to expand the CBRN eNOTICE Training Centre (TC) network by including CBRN Center of Excellence Regional Offices and CBRN CoE of partner countries as key contributors. The main goal of the project is to create a functional structure that meets the operational needs of the entire Security community for CBRN crisis preparedness and response. Key aspects of eNOVATION’s action include providing access to upgraded capacity labeled TCs, advanced training methods using technologies like VR/XR, user-friendly on-site tools and technologies to security practitioners, updated policies and crisis management adapted to new threats and enhanced CBRN marketplace access.
