Erlangen and Beşiktaş: Disaster protection in the sign of cooperation!
Erlangen and Beşiktaş: Disaster protection in the sign of cooperation!
As part of the Ortak project, the BRK district association Erlangen-Höchstadt recently received a delegation from the Turkish twin town of Beşiktaş, which is located in an area at risk of earthquake. After the devastating earthquake in February 2023, close cooperation in civil and disaster protection and the establishment of a search dog squad was decided. The aim of the initiative is to train the population in Beşiktaş in important protective measures and to benefit from the experience from Erlangen.During the visit to Germany, the dog handlers from Beşiktaş had the opportunity to practice the search with emergency dogs on a rubble field under the guidance of experts from the BRK rescue dog squadron. At the same time, lectures and practical demonstrations about the establishment of disaster protection in Erlangen and the use of drones to search for missing people. Various special vehicles and equipment that support the rescue workers in use were also presented. The BRK offers valuable insights and education for the future development of its own rescue dog squadron in Beşiktaş. Further details on this project are here to be found.
