About
CFPA-I
The Confederation
of Fire Protection Associations-International (CFPA-I), is a body of
leading fire protection organizations from around the world that have
joined forces to collectively direct their resources at reducing the global
fire problem and increasing life safety. Nine (9) fire protection association executives got
together at an International Fire Conference in London in 1965, which
resulted in the formation of the Conference of Fire Protection
Associations. It was later renamed to its present the Confederation of Fire
Protection Association International – CFPA-I. By sharing experience,
research, technical know-how, and fire statistics, the group aims to
maximize the effectiveness of fire prevention and protection and foster
improved international fire safety codes and standards. The CFPA-I meets
every three years at which time some of the more challenging global fire
problems are debated. These sessions provide an opportunity to share
advanced research and developments that have taken place in specific problem
areas. Significant advances have been made in recent years in fire safety
and the CFPA-I have provided an exceptional forum to disseminate this
knowledge. CFPA-I is an assembly of authoritative, knowledgeable
organizations that have made impressive contributions in the field.
