The Disaster Recovery Toolkit for Local Government is a modular guide that helps local authorities prepare for, manage, and sustain disaster recovery across the full recovery timeline.

A free, curriculum-linked first aid teaching toolkit that enables any secondary school teacher across the UK to deliver first aid education to students.

The Tokyo Resilience Project is a city-wide preparedness programme that equips residents with practical tools and learning experiences to improve everyday disaster readiness.

In practice, the project operates as a multi-hazard resilience “umbrella”: it strengthens physical protection (e.g., regulating reservoirs and river measures; coastal protection and sea-level-rise readiness; upgrading buildings and lifelines) while also trying to make preparedness “everyday” through accessible products and outreach. Examples of public-facing outputs include:

Provides emergency managers and disaster preparedness professionals with practical, step-by-step guidance for designing and conducting simulation exercises that test and strengthen response plans, procedures, and coordination systems across all hazards.

A free, modular resilience guide that equips Red Cross Red Crescent branches and community-based organisations in urban areas to lead practical, low-cost activities that strengthen community preparedness and reduce disaster risk.

A policy and planning toolkit used by education and disaster risk management actors to assess, reduce, and manage risks affecting learners, educators, and education systems.

The CSSF aims to:

A comprehensive digital solution that equips residents and visitors of Estonia with standardized, actionable instructions to prepare for and respond to a wide array of crises, from natural disasters to cyber-attacks. The platform features an interactive household supply checklist, first-aid instructions, and survival guidelines tailored to the Estonian context. Its mobile application is designed to function entirely offline once downloaded, ensuring that citizens have uninterrupted access to life-saving information even during severe power or telecommunications outages.

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 digital platform and citizen network designed to mobilize local mutual aid and risk awareness through a "Citizen Volunteer" model before, during, and after disasters.
