On June 5, 2026, in Saraj, the Red Cross of the Republic of North Macedonia organized and successfully conducted the “Summer Camp of the Red Cross Operational Forces – Saraj 2026.” This high-profile event was fully dedicated to enhancing preparedness, skills, and capacities for action in emergency and crisis situations.
As a key partner in building safety and resilience, the Institute for Crisis Management took an active part in the exercise, working hand-in-hand with key institutions of the crisis management system and Red Cross volunteers.
Key Aspects and Activities of the Camp:
- Real-time Simulations and Exercises: Members of the operational forces from all over the country underwent intensive scenario-based training to ensure rapid and effective responses to emergencies.
- Teamwork and Coordination: On-the-field experience sharing aimed at optimizing synchronization between various rescue and support teams.
- Interdisciplinary Approach: Collaborative efforts uniting the non-governmental sector, professional institutions, and state authorities within the framework of the national crisis management system.
Partnership for a Stronger Protection System
The active participation of the Institute for Crisis Management in this regional exercise reaffirms our strategic commitment to continuous education, field preparedness, and close cooperation with the Red Cross—one of the main pillars of humanitarian response in the country.
“Only through joint exercises, realistic simulations, and synchronized actions among all stakeholders in the crisis management system can we build a society resilient to modern security and natural challenges.”
We extend our congratulations to the Red Cross of the RNM for the excellent organization, and to all participants for demonstrating an exceptionally high level of professionalism and dedication on the field.
