From March 17 to 20, CEPREVEN hosted a series of CFPA-E Commission meetings at its newly inaugurated facilities, bringing together experts from across Europe to advance key safety and prevention initiatives.
A particularly productive session was held with the Security Committee, where significant progress was made in several critical areas related to burglary and security. Discussions focused on the review of the Guidelines for Security in Museums and Exhibition Halls, as well as updates to the Guideline for School Security and the Guideline for Arson Prevention.
In parallel, members of the Fire Safety and Training Commissions conducted dedicated working sessions addressing essential fire safety challenges. Key topics included fire protection measures during the transport and storage of lithium-ion batteries and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), along with specialized training initiatives centered on Quality Assurance and the collection of training statistics—both considered fundamental to strengthening prevention and safety across Europe.
The Natural Hazards Commission addressed the updating of the Guidelines on Lightning Protection; Protection of Buildings Against Wind Damage; and Protection Against Floods. They also discussed the development of documents on new topics such as earthquakes, snow slides, and other natural hazards.
The Management Commission met on March 20 to address the Confederation’s strategic priorities and to coordinate preparations for the upcoming General Assembly, scheduled to take place in Milan in May.
The week proved highly productive and underscored, once again, the importance of cooperation and collaborative efforts in advancing safety and prevention at the European level.
