The meeting was attended by representatives from Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkey, Ukraine, Greece, Romania, Moldova and other states in the region, who discussed the necessary measures to reduce vulnerability to earthquakes and enhance emergency response capacity.
The discussion focused on the consequences of natural disasters that have occurred in the Black Sea region in recent years, including loss of life, population evacuations and significant damage to infrastructure and buildings. In this context, the participants emphasised the need for closer cooperation between states to prevent risks and manage the consequences of natural disasters.
Representatives from Greece, Armenia and Romania presented their national experiences and practices in the field of seismic risk reduction.
Following the discussion, participants recommended strengthening cooperation in three areas: the use of modern technologies and spatial monitoring to forecast natural disasters; improving mechanisms for providing assistance and responding to emergencies; and the development of seismic risk maps for major cities and densely populated areas.
These measures are designed to support countries in the region in identifying vulnerable areas, preparing for potential earthquakes, and protecting the population and buildings.
