European EOD Network Conferences & Training 2019
The EEODN (European EOD Network) was established in April 2008. Since then, EOD and CBRN experts have met twice a year (each time in a different member country) to discuss and understand the existing threats from the illicit use of explosives and CBRN agents, training the best practices and exchanging during the event technical and intelligence info on recent incidents.
In order to continue improving in those respects among the EU Members States, the EU agencies EUROPOL (European Union’s Law Enforcement Agency) and CEPOL (European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Training) in a close cooperation with the Finnish Police – Special Intervention Unit/C-IED (TEPO), invited the EU Member States (members of EEODN), EEODN observers (Norway, Switzerland and Israel), third party countries and International Organizations/Agencies that were Competent Authorities in Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD/IEDD), CBRN Units and Bomb Data Centers (BDC), to take part the Conference and Training on CBRN and Explosives that took place in Finland as a host country.
