The Fire Kills campaign (UK) aims to reduce deaths and injuries from home fires by promoting prevention, early detection, and escape plans. The focus is on increasing the number and proper placement of smoke detectors (including interconnected ones) and improving safe behaviors at home. It offers practical advice on common risks and what to do in the event of a fire. It focuses on vulnerable groups (elderly, disabled, and hearing-impaired) and provides information on possible local home fire safety visits.

The Regional Tsunami Project is a regional initiative launched in 2017 by UNDP with funding from the Government of Japan to strengthen tsunami preparedness in schools and communities across the Asia-Pacific. The project works with governments and school systems to institutionalize risk education and evacuation drills, improve evacuation planning and routes, and make the drills regular and replicable.

A structured system where Japanese municipalities and welfare institutions create personalized evacuation strategies for vulnerable people, verified through inclusive drills and coordinated with local support networks.

ROHCMUM is a formalised coalition (incorporated since 2007) that convenes community and humanitarian organisations, municipal civil security, and Québec public-safety actors.
It focuses on preparedness and operational coordination for “major disasters,” improving how organisations mobilise, communicate, and deliver support to affected populations.
Its core offer includes structured workshops (initiation, emergency measures plan, business continuity, mobilisation/coordination) facilitated by specialists.

Safety tips combines a traveler-focused safety website and a push-alert smartphone app to help people in Japan react quickly during hazards.
It provides multilingual alerts (e.g., earthquake/tsunami/weather) and practical guidance such as evacuation flowcharts and helpful phrases for communicating locally.
The emergency section organizes procedures to follow for multiple scenarios (earthquake, tsunami warnings, evacuation information, volcanic warnings, heat stroke alerts).

Get Ready (NEMA - New Zealand) is a national preparedness platform that offers practical instructions for preparing for and responding to multi-risk emergencies (before, during, and after).
The site addresses the problem of low self-sufficiency in a crisis, promoting family/community plans, kits, and supplies (e.g., water and grab bags). It includes specific guidance for vulnerable groups (disabilities, the elderly, children) and pets, with accessible and multilingual resources.

The Cyclone Preparedness Programme is a joint initiative of the Government of Bangladesh and the Bangladesh Red Crescent Society, combining state early warning systems with last-mile, volunteer-led community action to ensure timely evacuation, preparedness, and lifesaving response in cyclone-prone coastal areas.

Bjørnis is a child-centred risk communication and psychosocial support initiative that uses a firefighter teddy bear to reduce fear, support emotional regulation, and improve children’s understanding of emergencies and safety behaviours.

A nationwide, recurring fire-risk awareness and prevention campaign that uses experiential learning and direct interaction with firefighters to improve household preparedness and reduce fire-related injuries and damage.

RiskMap is an open, transparent, web-based platform that collects verified, real-time disaster reports from citizens via social media/chatbots and visualizes them on an interactive map.
Residents report hazards (e.g., flood location/depth, road closures, storm damage) and the map helps communities avoid danger and navigate to safety.
Emergency managers can use the same data stream (and, in some deployments, a dedicated dashboard) to support situational awareness and response planning.
