The background:
The November 2018 CTIF Seminar "Fire, Rescue & New Challenges" in Brussels was such a great success that the CTIF Executive Committee now has decided to make the CTIF Seminar a permanent, yearly event. The next CTIF Seminar will be in Ostrava, Czech Republic on October 25 & 26, 2019.
The hosting organization will be the Fire Rescue Brigade of Moravian-Silesian Region in cooperation with the Czech Association of Fire Officers, who very successfully hosted the Delegates Assembly 2009, also then in Ostrava.
The CTIF Executive Committee has decided to keep the name of the Seminar the same, since "Fire, Rescue & New Challenges" is a headline which can encompass many current topics and is a name that has already received some recognition in Europe.
Our Call for Proposals is aimed at our Commission Members, our National Member Delegates, our Associate Members and other Experts within our now 40 member countries. All Speakers will be reimbursed for Travel & Accommodation.
The Deadline:
Please contact vice president Milan Dubravac for more information about our above mentioned topics during the Two Day Seminar in October 2019.
