Rescuers and Firefighters in the Republic of Moldova continue to be with children in the training process in school schools
Rescuers and firefighters from the Republic of Moldova continue to be with children in the training process in the educational institutions in the country. Thus they carry out training activities for students in southern districts, center and north. The actions aim to increase the level of preparation of children in the face of risk situations, but also to react in exceptional situations.
The activities are continuously carried out in educational institutions throughout the country, in collaboration with teachers. They are adapted according to the age and level of preparation of the students. The objective of prevention measures is to cover all 1282 educational institutions in the Republic of Moldova during the school year 2025–2026.
between 04.09.2025-10.09.2025, IGSU employees visited 39 institutions from Causeni and Stefan Voda, Edineț, Ocnița, Cantemir, Ceadîr-Lunga, etc.
Here were theoretical and practical lessons, training over 4 290 students and 410 teachers.
During the school year, IGSU employees will carry out interactive lessons in schools, gymnasiums and high schools, to prepare children to respond correctly in emergencies. These activities include theoretical training, but also practical exercises, meant to provide students with the knowledge necessary to react efficiently in the event of earthquake, fire or other exceptional situations.
IGSU specialists train children in an accessible language about the correct behavior in the face of dangers, about how to alert in case of emergency, as well as the correct use of the unique emergency number 112. Also, the children benefit from useful information, presented in an accessible way, regarding the first aid.
An essential component of training is the practical evacuation exercises. They are organized in schools and kindergartens, simulating real situations, to test the capacity for rapid reaction and coordination of students, teachers and auxiliary staff. In the first weeks of the school year, 18 evacuation exercises have already been carried out, with the training of 4 968 students, 413 teachers and 184 auxiliary personnel from educational institutions.
During these activities, teachers are also trained, so that they can support and guide students effectively in case of emergency situations.
The promotion of safety values by involving the young generation is a priority aspect in the activity of the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations.
Prevention is the key to safety, and education is the first step towards a safe European community.
