The Civil Protection toll-free number 1021
Since its creation following independence, the Civil Protection service has undergone several evolutions through different stages, both organizationally and in terms of the missions entrusted to it. These developments were in line with the socio-economic development of the country, which required meeting numerous challenges to guarantee the security of people and property.
The year 1964 saw the first reform movement in this area, considered a transitional period in accordance with Decree No. 64-129 of April 15, 1964, which regulated the administration of Civil Protection. This decree stipulated that intervention and assistance to people in danger did not only constitute a legal obligation, but also a duty of solidarity.
Civil Protection services have gradually evolved to reach the distinctive level that characterizes them today, in terms of organization, human resources and practical means, as well as in terms of intervention operations both inside and outside the country.
