On May 6, 2026, the Industrial Systems Institute of the Athena Research Center swung by the Experimental Junior High School of the University of Patras for a GRECALE Infoday with the curious minds of the 3rd class — and wow, what a crowd!

We talked about big stuff: earthquakes, floods, and how the GRECALE project is helping Civil Protection authorities across the Adriatic-Ionian region stay one step ahead of disasters. The star of the show? Our ADRION Civil Protection Disaster Management System (ACPDMS) — a smart platform built to support response and recovery when nature decides to shake things up (literally).

The students brought brilliant questions, sharp observations, and exactly the kind of energy that makes us hopeful about the future of resilience.
