A global educational simulation that challenges players to act as disaster risk managers, tasking them with protecting communities against imminent natural hazards through strategic planning and resource management. In each 10-20 minute session, players navigate one of five scenarios - tsunami, hurricane, wildfire, earthquake, or flood - where they must decide how to spend a limited budget on structural and non-structural measures.
A comprehensive national communication initiative designed to provide Romanian citizens with standardized, life-saving behavioral guidelines for seismic events. The initiative utilizes high-visibility video spots, downloadable educational brochures for schools, and interactive digital content to replace common myths with scientifically backed "correct behaviors." By ensuring that every citizen knows how to "drop, cover, and hold on" and avoid dangerous actions like using elevators or running onto stairs, the campaign builds a culture of national seismic resilience.
