Crisis Management Exercises
Objective Help Member States better prepare to deal with potential terrorist incidents by engaging senior policy-makers in realistic exercises designed to bring specific issues of contingency planning and threat mitigation to their attention, with the goal of helping them to prepare formal terrorist contingency plans.
Description An annual table-top exercise bringing together senior policy-makers from a selected Member State with counter-terrorism specialists, to play through a specially constructed terrorism scenario.  Each scenario highlights specific potential terrorist threats and challenges the government players to devise real time solutions to the problems presented to them.  An after-action discussion provides policy-makers with both professional critiques and opportunity to begin national contingency planning.
Audience Senior policy and decision makers (sub-cabinet and permanent secretary level) in host country involved with establishing and funding security related issues.
