Denmark pushes for private sector resource mapping for crisis response
What happened
Morten Høyer, head of policy at the Confederation of Danish Industry, called on municipalities in Denmark to map the resources of local companies for crisis response planning. Lisbeth Bech-Nielsen, Minister for Societal Resilience and Contingency, agreed, stating the government will build shared understanding of possible threats. Copenhagen Zoo was cited as an example of an organization that could contribute non-traditional resources, such as kitchens and operation theatres.

Why it matters
