What is EENA?
The European Emergency Number Association (EENA)
Discussion platform and best practices sharing for emergencyservices, public authorities, researchers, solution providers andall other actors of the public safety sector
Brussels-based organisation set up in 1999
Mission: Improve the safety and the security of the people

About 112
• Common emergency number in Europe
• Works all across the EU, 24/7 and free of charge
• Provisions related to 112 in EU legislation: Universal ServiceDirective & European Electronic Communications Code
• Organisation of emergency communications handling remainsthe competence of Member States

What lays behind 112?
1. Who should provide access to 112?
2. Locating emergency communications
3. Accessibility of 112
4. Embracing the digital revolution1. SDF

Who should provide access to 112?
Question was easy before
![Page 7: Evolution of access to emergency services · • New technologies makes it possible to obtain accurate location information derived from the handsets (GNSS, Wifi) • AML: Advanced](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081517/5ec84264f75ebf6fea523fb0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Who should provide access to 112?
But it’s a bit more complicated now
![Page 8: Evolution of access to emergency services · • New technologies makes it possible to obtain accurate location information derived from the handsets (GNSS, Wifi) • AML: Advanced](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081517/5ec84264f75ebf6fea523fb0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Different obligations related to 112 accessStandard telecommunications providers:
• Must provide access to 112
Number-Based ICS
• Must provide access to 112, as long as it is technically possible
Number-Independent ICS
• May have to provide access to 112 if "effective access to emergency services is appreciably threatened” (article 123, EECC)

Locating emergency communications
• Traditional way of locating emergency calls is not accurate: 2km in average
• New technologies makes it possible to obtain accurate location information derived from the handsets (GNSS, Wifi)
• AML: Advanced Mobile Location: automatic provision of accuratelocation data directly to emergency services

Accessibility of 112
“Member States shall ensure that access for end-users withdisabilities to emergency services is available through emergencycommunications and equivalent to that enjoyed by other end-users in accordance with Union law harmonising accessibilityrequirements for products and services.” (article 109 (5), EECC)

Embracing the digital revolution
New ICT technologies brings new possibilitie:
- Additional data to emergency services- New ways of accessing emergency services

Embracing the digital revolution
How can we make sure emergency services will benefit from this?

PSAPs need to be reachable24x7x365
Emergency Services need to beprepared to react:
• PSAPs have to ensure that peoplein distress can contact them
• Implement a defense againstTelephony DoS and Cyberattacks
