21 November 2024
As part of the European Fire Safety Week 2024, the European Parliament will host a high-level political discussion on fire safety priorities for 2024-2029. The event will bring together key policymakers, Members of the European Parliament, and representatives from multiple DGs of the European Commission.
While fire safety remains a national competence, its influence on and interaction with key EU policies highlight the pressing need for EU-level coordination.
📌 The discussion will focus on:
✅ The need for a strategic European approach to improve coordination of fire safety policies.
✅ Addressing fire risks related to the energy transition and evolving construction methods.
✅ Supporting Member States with solutions that protect vulnerable groups.
The event will advocate for a European Fire Safety Strategy that safeguards lives, supports sustainability, and builds resilience across the EU.
