Pressures on Schools and Fires on Trains – Topics Discussed at CrisCon 2025
17. October 2025How can aggressive instincts in young people be curbed? What should be learnt from recent tragedies? These were the key questions that experts sought to answer at the CrisCon 2025 conference, put on by the TBU’s Faculty of Logistics and Crisis Management.
Participants debated manifestations of aggression in schools, and spoke about managing critical situations pertaining to public transport and natural disasters. Speeches covered matters such as preventing youth violence and safety strategies for railways, while professionals recounted their handling of large-scale fires and floods.
For example, security expert Radim Pošíval highlighted that violence among children and adolescents poses a threat to society as a whole. Others shared practical insights and methods of prevention with those present, in addition to describing specific instances of crisis management. Paramedics demonstrated emergency procedures and talked about what they had experienced in the field, underlining how demanding and vital their work is.
“The aim was to inspire and prepare a new generation of professionals who will face crises in the future,” said Dean Prof. Ing. Zuzana Tučková, Ph.D.
This year’s conference attracted a record number of participants, which points to a rise in interest in crisis management and security issues. The next CrisCon event is scheduled for September 2026, where professionals and the general public alike will take part in fresh discussions, impart know-how and gain inspiration.
