GAREC 2015 details announced

An international conference on Amateur Radio Emergency Communications
will be held in June at Tampere, Finland, with the theme of
'Cooperating with Authorities'

Tampere saw the birth of the annual Global Amateur Radio Emergency
Conference (GAREC) in 2005. This vital conference has returned to that
city, with all involved in emergency communications throughout the
world being invited.

A prestigious keynote address will be given during the conference that
is hosted by the Finnish Amateur Radio League (SARL) and organised by
Finland’s national emergency communications society Suomen Radioturva
(SRT).

The third largest city in Finland, Tampere has a lively engagement in
providing emergency communications through SRT to the authorities.

Program Committee Chairman Dr. Seppo Sisättö OH1VR will review GAREC
from 2005 to 2015, along with a non-government emergency relief
agency.

The IARU Regional 1 Emergency Communications Coordinator, Greg Mossop
G0DUB will chair a very interesting discussion on ‘Cooperating with
Authorities - What have we done?’

The ‘Tools for Amateur Radio EmComms’ will be discussed, along with a
‘Long Range Provincial EmComm Repeater’ to be introduced by Juha
Hartikka OH7HJ.

Reports are to be delivered from the IARU Regions 1, 2 and 3, in a
session chaired by Jyri Putkonen OH7JP the SRT President.

Among the GAREC 2015 moderators are Merja Koivaara OH1EG, SRAL
President, and a National Emergency Supply Agency Representative.

GAREC 2015 will be in the Hotel Cumulus, Koskikatu 5, Tampere, Finland
on June 23-24. Many delegates can also travel to Friedrichshafen,
Germany, and enjoy Europe’s largest Hamfest that starts on June 26.
