The Algerian Civil Defence is a unit of the Algerian government responsible
for firefighting, rescue services, and emergency response. Following the
Algerian Revolution in 1962, the responsibility for management of Algerian
firefighters fell to individual municipalities. On April 15, 1964, the National
Civil Protection Service was created to standardize and professionalize the
corps of Algerian firefighters and rescue workers. In 1976 the service was
replaced by Algerian Civil Defense, nationalizing administration and day-to-day
operations. In 1991, civil protection was granted financial autonomy.
