The City of Craiova (“Canditate City – Craiova Cultural Capital of Europe 2021”) and the Shakespeare Foundation of Craiova are partners of the Prize. The event of the Europe Theatre Prize is an ideal situation for the Union des Théâtres de l'Europe and the Europe Theatre Prize to meet again as both institutions have been associated since the foundation of the UTE. Giorgio Strehler himself (one of the founders of the UTE, together with Jack Lang, current President of the ETP) strongly wanted the cooperation between the ETP and the UTE. During his acceptance speech at the Europe Theatre Prize in Taormina in 1990, Strehler pointed out the common aims of the ETP and the UTE regarding the role of theatre that was able to go beyond national borders and enter into a larger sphere, fore- shadowing a federal Europe. From the IV edition of the Prize onwards, the UTE has been a sup- porting and associate body of the ETP. During all of its further edi- tions, general assemblies of the UTE and other meetings and events took place during the ETP. Furthermore, the UTE always had an active role in the selection of candidates of the Europe Prize Theatrical Realities, as they are part of the ETP Council. Regarding the choice of some members of the ETP international jury, the UTE took part as an entitled member at the meetings of the jury with its President and Director.

  • Assessment of Emergencies Threatening a Particular Region
    MIDDLE POMERANIAN SCIENTIFIC SOCIETY OF THE ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION Rocznik Ochrona Środowiska Volume 21. Year 2019 ISSN 1506-218X 52-68 Assessment of Emergencies Threatening a Particular Region Oľga Végsöová, Martin Straka*, Marian Šofranko Technical University of Kosice, Slovakia *corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] 1. Introduction Civil protection can be defined as a system of tasks and measures aimed at protecting life, health and property, in particular by analysing possible threats and by taking measures to reduce the risk from threats, as well as by identifying procedures and actions to address the consequences of emergencies. This topic is relevant to the whole world and is therefore addressed by experts to find solutions, measures and procedures to prevent or deal with emer- gencies that have already arisen. As the role of civil protection is to protect life, health and property and to create conditions for survival in emergencies, the role of health care facilities in this context (Vichova & Hromada 2018) as well as the quality of emergency sup- plies (Bai et al. 2018, Šimko 2014) should also be addressed. An interesting paper is “Preparedness against Mobility Disruption by Floods”, which addresses the safety of people in an urban emergency (Arrighi et al. 2019), and it is necessary to consider the innovative links between data and information serving to aid as- sessment of the impacts and risks on the urban environment (Li et al. 2019, Straka et al. 2019). Natural disasters relating to long-term changes in temperature and changes in sea levels at global level are also the subject of world-wide research (Yuan et al.
