요약
의용소방대제도는 조선시대부터 조직되어 활동하고 있는 민간자율 소방조직이다. 여러 가지 우여곡절을 겪은 후 일제 통치 시대를 거치면서 1958년 소방법 제정으로 의용소방대가 설치되어 오늘에 이르고 있다. 과거의 소방인력이나 장비가 부족한 시대에 의용소방대는 소방활동에서 중요한 역할을 하였다. 화재진압 보조, 농촌지역에서의 화재초기진화, 산불진화, 사회봉사활동 등을 활발하고 훌륭하게 수행하여 왔다. 그러나 오늘의 소방조직은 국가의 경제력 향상과 국민들의 안전에 대한 의식 증대, 소방방재청의 개청 등으로 비약적인 발전이 이루어졌다. 과거 소방의 부족한 부분을 훌륭히 채워주던 의용소방대의 역할을 재조명하고 새로운 활동영역 등을 모색하여 활성화 할 방안을 강구하고자 한다.
