The Programme • Mission • History • Organization
“The International Cospas-Sarsat Programme provides accurate, timely and reliable distress alert and location data to help SAR authorities assist persons in distress.” Since 1982, Cospas-Sarsat has directly or indirectly provided assistance in rescuing more than 50,000 persons in 15,000 SAR events.
