On October 30–31, 2025, the XV International Scientific and Practical Conference “LIFE SAFETY, ECOLOGY, AND HEALTH CARE FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH IN THE 21ST CENTURY: CURRENT STATUS, PROBLEMS, AND PROSPECTS” was held

The conference focused on addressing gaps in students’ knowledge about how to behave in emergency situations and their lack of practical skills in self-help and mutual assistance.
