Faces of EU MODEX

What does EU MODEX mean to me?

EU MODEX means to me, better prepare experts and capacities for International deployments under the UCPM with the goal to save more lives when assisting populations affected by a disaster; a family of men and women strongly committed to continously improve EU MODEX and who made EU MODEX one of the flagship of the UCPM.

What are my wishes for the future of EU MODEX?

My wishes for the future are that EU MODEX continues to be a key pillar of the preparedness activities of the UCPM; that EU MODEX will evolve and develop to constantly meet the real preparedness needs.
