The visit featured an extensive professional program. On the first day at the Regional Headquarters of the Fire and Rescue Corps in Bratislava, the delegation familiarized themselves with the structure and operations of the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic, the Fire and Rescue Corps, and the Crisis Management Section of the Ministry of Interior. Selected interventions by Fire and Rescue Corps members, operational modules within the Fire and Rescue Corps, as well as international assistance and cooperation, were presented to the delegation. The second day included a visit to a fire station in Petr\u017ealka, Bratislava, where the firefighters from Kenya inspected fire fighting equipment and personal protective gear used in various types of interventions. Slovak officers explained the organization of shift service at fire stations and the execution of professional training and practical drills. The visit concluded on the third day with a trip to the Training Center of the Fire and Rescue Corps in Le\u0161\u0165, where the Kenyan delegation learned about the establishment and activities of the training center. They toured various training simulators, witnessing practical demonstrations along with detailed explanations. This exchange provided valuable insights and practical knowledge sharing between Kenyan and Slovak fire and rescue services, enhancing mutual understanding and cooperation in firefighting practices and emergency response.<\/div><\/div><\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n    \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9a32454 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9a32454\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-31775\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1-385x257.jpg 385w, https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/hasici-1-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6e70221 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6e70221\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-033f63c\" data-id=\"033f63c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f649493 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading_and_text\" data-id=\"f649493\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading_and_text.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n    <div class=\"custom-elementor-widget widget-heading-and-text\">\n      <h3>Cybersecurity and Digitalization of Public Administration Services<\/h3>\n      <p><p>In November 2023, under the patronage of SSE, <strong>two study visits by an expert delegation from Kenya<\/strong> were conducted in Bratislava with the aim of sharing Slovakia's expertise in cybersecurity, digitalization of public administration services, and data center protection within the public sector. The visits provided invaluable insights to participants in the rapidly evolving digital security landscape.

The exchange facilitated meaningful networking and the establishment of new collaborations. As a testament to the success of these efforts, a <em>Memorandum of Cooperation<\/em> was subsequently signed between the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Kenya and the National Security Authority of the Slovak Republic in the field of cybersecurity in February 2024 in Nairobi, Kenya. This memorandum underscored the commitment to enhancing\u00a0 cybersecurity capabilities and fostering ongoing collaboration between the two countries.<\/p><\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n

Lawyers Andrej Leontiev and Radovan Pala, who participated in the so-called \"big\" amendment to the law and also in the original drafting of the law, were the content guarantors of the seminar. The invitation to the seminar was also accepted by Prof. Paola Severino (Italy), Special Representative of the OSCE CiO on Combating Corruption and Special Representative on Fighting Corruption at OSCE Parliamentary Assembly, Ms. Irene Charalambides (Cyprus). The main message of the event was the need for cooperation in the field of uncovering obscured ownership structures in the context of the fight against corruption, money laundering and the use of public funds.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"col-lg-6 image-area\"> \n          <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/slovakaid.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Protischrankovy-zakon_seminar-599x411.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\">        <\/div>\n\n      <\/div><!-- .\/row -->\n    <\/div><!-- .\/widget-image-and-text -->\n\n    \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d642cf1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d642cf1\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-347af5f\" data-id=\"347af5f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ce11985 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image_and_text\" data-id=\"ce11985\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image_and_text.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n    <div class=\"custom-elementor-widget widget-image-and-text image-right\">\n      <div class=\"row\">\n\n        <div class=\"col-lg-6 text-area\">\n          <h3>Waste management<\/h3>\n          <p><p>In 2018 and 2019, there was an exchange of expertise with Albania on hazardous waste management.
