EU Member States lack an approach to enhance societal preparedness and response policies to CBRNe (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and explosive) events that integrate the needs of children.
Based on preliminary results from the EU H2020 funded PROACTIVE project (Preparedness against CBRNe threats through cOmmon Approaches between security praCTItioners and the VulnerablE civil society), these Guidelines for Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) working with children recommend developing solid and long-term collaboration between First Responders (FR) and CSOs and facilitating the advance of coherent, evidenced-based emergency procedures that address the management of children in three stages: before, during and after the event. With this aim in mind, the document provides critical recommendations for CSOs working with minors1 to promote their safety in these situations.
