Three firefighters from the Lanzarote Security and Emergency Consortium have traveled to Gambia to provide specialized training in fire extinguishing, rescue, and salvage to local emergency teams.

This initiative is part of the international cooperation and knowledge transfer actions developed by the entity, aiming to technically train Gambian professionals.

"The professionalism and vast experience of the island's firefighters are now a benchmark that transcends our borders."

The collaboration seeks to strengthen ties of solidarity with the neighboring continent and export an emergency management model that has proven effective in Lanzarote and La Graciosa.
During their stay, the Lanzarote personnel will share practical and theoretical knowledge, emphasizing continuous technical training, a fundamental pillar for the Consortium.
