Qom Province civil defense and infrastructure planning

Overview

Officials in Qom Province have prioritized the integration of civil defense and infrastructure resilience into regional development. Initially, the Qom Province Planning and Development Council emphasized that civil defense requirements must be incorporated during the early stages of urban projects—such as site selection and design—to ensure the continuity of vital services and cost-effectiveness.

Subsequent discussions involving the Iranian Parliament’s Health and Treatment Commission expanded this focus to include healthcare infrastructure. Officials highlighted the need to align medical resources with the province’s high volume of annual pilgrims. Concurrently, efforts to protect critical utilities, including water, electricity, gas, and telecommunications, have been reinforced through the ‘Non-Military Defense Assistant’ campaign, which aims to increase inter-agency coordination and public awareness to mitigate damages during various crisis scenarios.
