🌍 What a week for ODET!
From Coimbra to Brussels, they've been a few intense days of conversations, exchanges and new connections around wildfire resilience and civil protection.
We're so grateful for the opportunity to meet, share perspectives and keep strengthening the network working towards more resilient communities.
See you at the next one! 🔥
#ODET #WildfireResilience #CivilProtection
Research from ODET partner Catalan Fire and Rescue Service #BombersCat was presented at the 10th International Conference on Forest Fire Research in Coimbra!
Marc Castellnou @incendi shared a study on fire-atmosphere interactions during the extreme 2025 Guissona wildfire.
#ICFFR
📍 A busy morning for ODET at #CivilProtectionForum2026!
From the panel discussion on integrated wildfire risk management to our Speaker’s Corner, we’re sharing insights and connecting with the civil protection community. Great to be part of this!
#WildfireRiskManagement
📍 ODET at #CivilProtectionForum today!
Join us in Brussels:
🔹 11:15–12:45 | Breakout Room 2: Joint wildfire risk session with FIRE-SCENE & SPARKLEFIRE, featuring ODET partners Edwin Kok (@NIPV_NL ) and Jordi Vendrell (@PauCostaF ).
🔹 13:00–13:20 | Speaker’s Corner
If you speak Dutch, tune in! 🎙️
Chiel van Heerwaarden (@WUR ) explains how extreme wildfires can create their own weather, and how weather balloons help researchers understand fire behaviour.

#ODET #Wildfires
The training benefited from the expertise of @WUR , @PauCostaF , @bomberscat, @NIPV_NL and @DREAM_ITALIA_ , alongside wildfire professionals from different countries 🫱🏼🫲🏽
We truly believe that exchanging scientific knowledge and operational experience is essential to advancing our understanding of extreme wildfires.
Thanks to everyone involved! 🔥
