>From World Caving News http://www.zenas.gr/WCN => 25 Mar. 2007.Organized by
the Hungarian Cave Rescue Service on behalf ofCave Rescue Commission of the
International Union of Speleology.Aims and Objectives.During the UIS
Congress held in Greece in August 2005, it was decided that the 11th
International Cave Rescue Conference would be hosted by Hungary.A study is
taking place throughout 2006 focussing on the differences of cave rescue
methodology as it is recognised around the world that there are many
varying cave rescue techniques and skills.The objective of this 11th
International Cave Rescue Conference is to study the organisational aspects
of cave rescue as well as insurance, liability and finance. In particular,
there will be discussions on how a cave rescue could be undertaken in a
country where there is no official cave rescue team.Before this Conference,
we will circulate the results of the above mentioned cave rescue study and
we will use it as a basis for our discussions. We hope that the conference
will provide many answers and ideas for cavers and cave rescue
teams.Christian Dodelin President of the Cave Rescue Commission of the
