Disaster Management Needs Planning
Practical training for disaster management requirement planning
Awareness of the importance of effective disaster preparedness has increased significantly, due in part to the Ahrtal disaster, steadily increasing cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, and a hybrid threat landscape. However, many other hazards must still be considered for effective civil protection.
Furthermore, public administrations face pressure to justify measures with financial implications.
Proper disaster management requirement planning solves several problems at once:
- Risks are objectified.
- Necessary actions are prioritized.
- Procurement requirements are legitimized.
Various guidelines are available for disaster management requirement planning. However, disaster management authorities often lack the time for such extensive basic assessments in their daily operations. Against the background of recognized professional recommendations, this seminar aims to focus on the essentials and separate what is strictly necessary for a transparent risk analysis from what is merely desirable.
In a compact four-hour seminar, we aim to provide you with theoretical knowledge and practical tools to help you take the first steps in the “Risk Analysis and Requirement Assessment in Civil Protection” project.
Specifically, we will look at the following content, among others:
- Conceptual introduction: Of hazards and risk
- The risk matrix as a planning tool
- Fundamentals of scenario-based planning
- What is a scenario?
- How does scenario-based planning work in disaster management? What are the differences, for example, compared to fire department requirement planning?
- Project management
- Which actors should be involved in the project?
- Milestones in the project process?
- How do I prepare for the implementation and moderation of a scenario workshop?
- Target-performance comparison
- Political involvement
In addition to knowledge transfer, an open learning atmosphere is intended to facilitate networking among participants.
