The main aim of the course is for students to gain awareness of population protection in cities and municipalities. The main tasks of population protection will be discussed. We will focus on selected natural phenomena in the local or regional scale. Much attention will be paid to the impact of extreme phenomena on human life and activities (agriculture, industry, transport) and possible measures to reduce them.
