TRIPLEX 2016

The 2016 TRIPLEX exercise, hosted by the Norwegian Directorate for Civil Protection in southern Norway, brought together over 200 participants from 36 organizations and more than 70 nationalities. Centered on a realistic scenario involving Hurricane "Windblown," which devastated the fictional country of Sörland, the exercise tested emergency response coordination among UN agencies, the EU Civil Protection team, NGOs, military actors, and private sector partners. The event began with workshops on the latest humanitarian tools and mechanisms, followed by a three-day simulation focused on assessments, coordination, and response planning.
