Abstract
The fourth focal report focuses on cooperation in civil protection and looks at institutional cooperation arrangements at the intergovernmental/supranational level (European Union) and the national level (Spain and UK). The first part is dedicated to civil protection in the European Union (EU). The EU Community Mechanism for Civil Protection is explored with a focus on the Mechanism s tools that aim to facilitate coordination and cooperation. The second part looks at the civil protection systems of Spain and the UK. It highlights different cooperation arrangements between local, regional, and central administrative levels, and between various actors involved in civil protection (multi-agency cooperation, interdepartmental cooperation). The third part draws on the insights of the two previous parts to discuss possible lessons for Switzerland. The report concludes with an annotated bibliography on civil protection in Spain, the UK, and the EU, including government documents, online sources, and academic literature. Show more
