At times like these, it is important that we stand together with unity of purpose and unity of actions. I am confident that by working closely together, by coordinating precisely together, we reinforce our security environment. We live in a time when our security landscape is marked by persistent conflict, constant change, and enormous complexity as the future holds uncertainty of man-made crises – political, financial, and social, in addition to the increasing natural resource competition, demographic changes, violent extremism. Living in a world in which disaster can strike from a number of fronts we have an obligation to be better prepared to face and overcome challenges. This is not a concrete agenda full of deadlines but includes activities and performances, which in reality determine the effectiveness and profitability of our long-term ambitions. It is recognized that peace, security, development and stability are more interconnected than ever, placing a premium on close interaction amongst all actors involved assuming their respective roles in crisis prevention and management. My organization, the Crisis Management and Disaster Response Centre of Excellence maintains the idea that no one alone is sufficient to prevent or manage crises. Success requires enhanced interaction amongst the whole spectrum of actors at all levels before and during engagement. Based on our activities in the last 2 years the present issue of CMDR COE Proceeding 2014-2015 hereafter focus attention to factors that will largely shape, in my humble opinion, the implications to the complex of actions and interactions in response of disasters and management of crisis.

Every year, a lot of representatives of different NATO and PfP nations take part in the CMDR COE annual seminars. The annual event aims to improve the common understanding of interagency cooperation in the area of CMDR and to contribute to the Comprehensive Approach in this field. The latest CMDR COE annual Interagency Interaction Seminar was carried out in the period 8-9 JUN 2015 at Boyana Residence, Sofia, Bulgaria.

The CMDR COE intent is to facilitate the exchange of ideas regarding transformation throughout the transatlantic community by creating a common understanding in the sphere of crisis management and disaster response.
