This week, the report from the 2019 Joint Arctic Search and Rescue Workshop and Tabletop Exercise was published. The report was written in cooperation with the organizers and Marpart researchers.

The report concludes that expedition cruise ships have robust procedures for dealing with a scenario where passengers become stranded on land. However, the exercise also showed that shared situational understanding and communication with rescue authorities can be improved.

Samfunnsikkerhetsminister Ingvil Smines Tybring-Gjedde hadde et tett program da hun før helgen besøkte Bodø, Handelshøgskolen og Nord universitet.

Anledningen for besøket var Øvelse Nord, som i år ble arrangert for 24.gang.

- Jeg har aldri vært vitne til en bedre koordinert øvelse, uttalte ministeren da hun oppsummerte dagen sammen med representanter fra de rundt 25 etatene som deltok.

Statsråden, som selv var med på øvelsen, startet dagen med et bergingsløft i helikopter. Senere besøkte hun HHNs beredskapslab (NORDLAB), som nylig markerte 1 års drift.

"Beredskap og kriseledelse" har blitt svært populært, og blant brukerne av lab'en er - blant annet - masterstudentene som følger dette HHN-studiet.

Her: Statsråden og dekan Erlend Bullvaag.
