Kenniscentrum OO

The Kenniscentrum Ontplofbare Oorlogsresten (Knowledge Centre for Explosive Remnants of War) plays a crucial role in supporting municipalities in managing explosive remnants of war effectively. Established through a joint effort among key stakeholders, including the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, the centre serves as a vital resource for knowledge exchange, experience sharing, and the development of strategies pertaining to explosive remnants.

The centre's three core functions include providing answers to inquiries regarding detection processes, creating a comprehensive guide for municipalities on managing safety-related issues, and overseeing the establishment and execution of a dedicated research program. By facilitating the safe execution of ground work, Kenniscentrum OO aims to ensure that municipalities can address the challenges posed by explosive remnants competently. Its approach is collaborative, drawing on insights from various government ministries, local authorities, and public safety organizations to enhance policy development and response strategies.
