- Restoring resilience in hybrid war.
- Non-military defence preparations and crisis management in the national security system.
- Health protection as an element of the critical state infrastructure.
- Modern techniques and technologies to support national security.
- Security problems in contemporary security science.
- Covid – 19 – experiences and conclusions
The Conference is to provide a platform to share and expand knowledge on epidemiology and CBRN security in the context of threats to health after the use of CBRN agents. Therefore the conference topics concern a wide range of activities undertaken throughout the process of responding to the threat: preparation and prevention, and actions performed both during the incident and also after its occurrence.
The Conference Agenda also covers thematic workshops. Representatives of both Polish and foreign (the U.S.A., the Czech Republic and Slovakia) uniformed services have been invited to deliver these lectures.
As in the previous years, participants will receive credit points. Scientific reports will be published in a conference monograph with a specific ISBN number.
