After the welcoming address of the organizers and the mutual introduction of the participants, the purpose of the productive discussion was to gather experience, identify shortcomings, expectations and good practices formulating answers on how we can support each other, and how we can collaborate better in crises related to:

- Epidemiological scenarios

- Climate change scenarios and

- Threats scenarios.

The focus was on creating answers, how we can support others and how we can better cooperate in crises related to the pandemic situations. Special emphasis was placed on understanding the public-private partnership and what is already in the operational environment, what is missing and how we can achieve strategic and system improvements. The collected information, experience and good practice will support the continuation of discussions, analyzes and research of the EU project SUNRISE in the national and international environment.
