As part of the NaturKosovo project, the final training mission of the advanced summer module was held in Kosovo from June 3-6 in Deçan/Dečani, organized by the National Alpine and Speleological Rescue Corps (CNSAS) for the 8 operators of the Kosovo Alpine Rescue.
The four days of training focused on technical-medical rescue for managing traumatized patients in challenging environments. Practical intervention simulations were also conducted, with the learning of specific rescue techniques and maneuvers on Via Ferrata and stretcher handling techniques on a zip line.
The closing ceremony saw the delivery of certificates of participation, confirming the commitment, passion, and professionalism demonstrated by the Kosovar rescuers during the activities. CNSAS also renewed its interest in continuing mutual collaboration to promote the complete independence and autonomy of the Kosovo Alpine Rescue.
