When the scale of an emergency overwhelms national response capacities, a disaster-stricken country can benefit from civil protection means or teams in other EU countries. However, there is no common, standardized approach for all relief workers. There are two major incident training systems being used across Europe: The British Major Incident Medical Management and Support (MIMMS) system and the European-based and Swedish-led Medical Response to Major Incidents and Disasters (MRMI) course. The DITAC Project proposes to develop a holistic training curriculum for first responders and managers dealing strategically with international crises.
