RCRU Training 3
Training – River Cleanup Response Unit
Introduction Training – River Cleanup Response Unit
During this introductory training, you will get a detailed introduction to River Cleanup and the RCRU.
This is a one day hands-on training, allowing you to become familiar with our tools and techniques for carrying out safe and effective cleanup operations.
The program includes basic canoeing exercises linked to real-life scenarios, an introduction to rope techniques useful during cleanup operations, and other practical workshops.
No prior experience is required.
Based on our interventions during previous floods, this training represents an important step in improving our operational approach and strengthening our ability to respond quickly and effectively when needed.
During this day, participants will:
Gain insight into the mission, structure, and coordination of the RCRU
Practice cleanup and preparedness techniques in realistic scenarios
Strengthen collaboration within the growing RCRU network
With your commitment, we continue to build a coordinated and resilient network ready to respond quickly and effectively after floods — to protect both our rivers and the communities that depend on them.
You’ll receive all the practical details for the training — including the exact schedule, what to bring, and how to get there —once registered about a week before the event.We look forward to welcoming you this trainingsday.
