The city of Granada is implementing several initiatives to enhance public safety and disaster response capabilities. In mid-October, the Granada City Council scheduled ‘Emergency Day’ at Paseo del Salón to promote a culture of prevention through first aid workshops and demonstrations of local police, fire, and civil protection equipment.

Following these public awareness efforts, the region is preparing for ‘Respuesta26’ on November 10. Described by Andalusian Vice President Antonio Sanz as the largest national exercise of its kind, this major earthquake simulation will involve approximately 200 participants. The drill aims to test command posts, resource mobilization, and communication protocols among various entities, including the Junta de Andalucía, local municipalities, and emergency services.
