Information

Cette démarche s’inspire de l’expérience québécoise du Regroupement des Organismes Humanitaires et Communautaires pour les Mesures d’Urgence à Montréal (ROHCMUM). Les outils de préparation aux situations d’urgence développés par l’AFPCNT, associés à des ateliers collectifs, permettent aux associations réunionnaises volontaires de réaliser leur Plan de mesures d’urgence et de solidarité.

Contribution

A national school-based preparedness programme that uses classroom materials and a game to teach primary school children how to recognise risks and act safely in emergencies.

Contribution

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.

Case

This solution is an institutional textbook designed to provide school teachers with a structured framework for teaching civil protection as part of the compulsory Civic Education course. It offers detailed modules covering the history of the National Civil Protection Service, the scientific basis of diverse hazards, and practical self-protection measures. The textbook serves as an official reference to foster a culture of prevention and community resilience from an early age.

Solution

A modular fire safety education programme for secondary schools that helps teachers build students’ practical knowledge and safer behaviour.
BFireSafe@School provides structured learning content (units/modules) supported by digital components (e-learning/LMS), enabling schools to integrate fire safety into classroom delivery in a consistent and repeatable way. It was developed through a multi-country consortium and is made available in multiple languages to support transferability across education systems.

Case

A short video series that teaches kindergarten-age children fire safety through a puppet character and simple, memorable stories.
The episodes explain practical fire prevention and safe behaviour in a child-friendly way and introduce the role of firefighters, fire station equipment, and what happens during an emergency. The series is published online so educators and families can use it repeatedly in classrooms or at home.

Case

A practical household preparedness guide that helps people manage the first 72 hours of an emergency when essential services may be disrupted. 

Solution

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.

Contribution

Professional emergency services may, at times, be limited in their response capacity and are often forced to focus their efforts on providing only the most essential assistance. Ready2Help is especially beneficial when a large number of people are quickly needed to provide extra support. This includes physical assistance (e.g. filling sandbags, carrying goods), sheltering groups of people, relieving healthcare personnel or providing assistance by making resources available (e.g. places to sleep or means of transport).
