World Fire Congress: Communities of Practice

Fire is a borderless threat, impacting the safety, health, and prosperity of communities in every nation. As risks evolve, so must our collective response.

The World Fire Congress (WFC) unites international partners to analyze fire behavior, building construction, emerging technologies, prevention systems, and the causes and control of all fire types, including large-scale wildland events.

Brought to you by UL Research Institutes’ Fire Safety Research Institute, WFCʻs Communities of Practice (CoPs) assemble global experts to accelerate shared learning and develop cross-border strategies that save lives.

Our Purpose

  • Bring forward actionable solutions to common fire-service challenges
  • Identify emerging risk areas and set global priorities
  • Monitor and strengthen cooperative efforts that reduce fire losses
