The overall objective of the INTERREG FIRESPILL Project - Fostering Improved Reaction of Crossborder Emergency Services is to enhance the capacity of Emergency Service Organizations to increase cross-border effectiveness in tackling natural and man-made disasters, decreasing the exposure of the populations to the impact of hazards and increasing the safety of the Croatian and Italian Adriatic basin by improving emergency prevention and management measures and instruments. Focusing on 4 types of risks (fires, oil spills, other marine risks, earthquakes), common macroactions will be implemented per each risk in order to improve: (a) Existing Emergency Services Regulatory System; (b) Emergency Management Systems (EMS) in terms of new and innovative solutions; (c) Citizens’ participatory process. The present work illustrates main tasks carried out in the FIRESPILL Project related to the assessment of existing steel structures and infrastructures with respect to seismic risk, and the activities related to the improvement of the awareness of communities with respect to the topic of seismic risk.

Abstract
The overall objective of the INTERREG FIRESPILL Project - Fostering Improved Reaction of Crossborder Emergency Services is to enhance the capacity of Emergency Service Organizations to increase cross-border effectiveness in tackling natural and man-made disasters, decreasing the exposure of the populations to the impact of hazards and increasing the safety of the Croatian and Italian Adriatic basin by improving emergency prevention and management measures and instruments. Focusing on 4 types of risks (fires, oil spills, other marine risks, earthquakes), common macroactions will be implemented per each risk in order to improve: (a) Existing Emergency Services Regulatory System; (b) Emergency Management Systems (EMS) in terms of new and innovative solutions; (c) Citizens’ participatory process. The present work illustrates main tasks carried out in the FIRESPILL Project related to the assessment of existing steel structures and infrastructures with respect to seismic risk, and the activities related to the improvement of the awareness of communities with respect to the topic of seismic risk.
