Targeted Adaptation

Providing Red Cross/Red Crescent practitioners with a complete project cycle framework and 59 adaptable tools for implementing community and school-based disaster risk education in Small Island Developing States.

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.

An annual Italian programme that trains young people each year in disaster risk awareness and civil protection through immersive week-long camps.

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 solution outlines foundations and pillars for systemic action to protect learners, keep schools open during crises, and build resilience through risk education and inclusive safety management. 

The CSSF aims to:

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 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.

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).

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.

The solution provides ready-to-use, scenario-based materials that help organisations simulate cyber incidents and strengthen their response coordination and decision-making capacity. The packages include facilitator guides, scenario narratives, injects, and evaluation tools that enable organisations to conduct structured discussion-based exercises without requiring technical simulation infrastructure.
