RISE Network for Municipal Preparedness

The network exists to support and strengthen municipal preparedness and crisis management. Through collaboration between central organizations, we create a platform for knowledge exchange and development, where we can identify needs, set common goals, and establish connections.

What do you get as a member?
Membership is currently free of charge and provides access to a multidisciplinary network where we share knowledge, offer professional development, and build bridges between research, business, and society. We organize regular digital meetings with various themes, addressing topics that provide direct benefits to participants—you should always leave our meetings with valuable insights and practical tools. We facilitate collaboration, exchange of experiences, and access to experts. Membership offers a fast track to information and knowledge that support preparedness efforts.

Who can join?
The network is aimed at individuals working with preparedness and security in municipalities, county administrative boards, preparedness agencies, civil defense areas, and regions. Other relevant stakeholders in municipal preparedness are also welcome.

Focus Areas
We focus on key supply dependencies—water , food, and energy—both in-depth and across sectors, to build a more resilient societal preparedness.
