Abstract

The International Search and Rescue Advisory Group (INSARAG) organized, from 9–11 December 1999 in Neuhausen, a symposium on rescue operations following the August and November earthquakes in Turkey. The representatives of rescue services of those countries which participated in the search for missing persons and in protection and rescue activities were invited to the symposium. On this occasion the representatives of rescue teams, international organizations and of the local authorities in the affected areas exchanged experiences with the aim of improving assistance in the event of a new disaster. M. Puppis and myself attended the symposium as representatives of Slovenia.
