Sommario/riassunto

This books offers a comprehensive overview of the possible effects of disasters or crisis situations on civil protections which have been challenged and tested during these scenarios. The book provides a comprehensive discussion on security and threats, describes the examples of crisis situations faced by people across regions of Africa, Asia, and Europe: the border ethnicity conflict experienced by the Rwandan refugees in Uganda, the impact of terrorism on critical infrastructure in Somalia, the Covid 19 pandemic impact on the Pakistani, and finally the pollution of the Oder Basin. The analyses and findings of this work provides a framework to improve the entities of the civil protection system, its subsystems, institutions and agencies; they are subjects of examination to improve their command, control and operational capacities during disasters. The challenges described in the book are of different nature and have arisen from a variety of global settings, yet they all implemented effective and more adaptive, cooperative methods for civil protection on a national and international level.
