The SA-URG project was recently presented during the International Disaster Response Meetings in Toulouse.
The official launch of SA-URG took place recently in Toulouse, within the framework of the International Disaster Response Meetings. During the European Session dedicated to The Trans-Pyrenean organization and response SA-URG Project, representatives of the project have presented the different aspects to be developed during the project and the challenges faced by the partners in promoting a cross-border approach in emergency health care among all the participating territories. They also insisted that SA-URG should serve as a lever to remove the barriers that prevent proper collaboration between teams.
The SA-URG project aims to reinforce cross-border cooperation and strengthen emergency management capacities in the border territory in order to provide a more efficient and adapted response to the needs of the population of the cross-border territory. It also proposes the creation of a cross-border mobile health team and a training program for health personnel in the border territories, as well as the development of digital tools to support interventions in emergency situations.
It should be noted that, unlike the EGALURG project, the SA-URG project covers all the territories of the border areas. Aragon joins the project as a partner and Euskadi and Andorra as associate partners. Collaboration between border territories is crucial to ensure an effective response to disasters and emergencies in the cross-border territory.
