Psychological service of MoI deals with 4 main domains: 
  • Disaster psychology
  • Psychology of crisis management

Disaster psychology and psychology of crisis management is a relatively new branch we are successfully targeting in recent years in regard of Ministry of Interior’s connection with Integrated Rescue System (IRS). We are participating in analysis and plans for crisis management, preparation of IRS trainings and simulations, development of methodical guidelines and recommendations for emergencies. In addition, Psychology Section of MoI is coordinating psychologists of the Police and the Fire and Rescue Service or providing direct psychosocial support for Czech citizens in case of large scale emergencies in the Czech Republic or abroad (such as the tsunami in south-east Asia, 2004; terrorist attack in Egypt, 2005; train accident of EuroCity108 in Studénka – north Moravia, 2008; floods 2009 in the Czech Republic).
 
Work in the area of crisis management involves educational activities when we are passing information and knowledge to the individual departments and regional workplaces of IRS but also legislative cooperation in this area. Furthermore, we are in close collaboration with international partners and we participate in the different worldwide projects – experience sharing, security and emergency research cooperation and coordination, active participation in international conferences (within the EU or other states, such as Israel or USA). Besides, we are in close collaboration with the Czech institutions and organizations, i.e. Ministry of Health, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Charles University in Prague or Czech Airlines and as well with non-governmental organizations.
