Building Inclusive and Resilient Communities

Everyone should be prepared for emergencies and everyone should be included.

This project brings together people with disabilities, trainers and civil protection organisations to make emergency preparedness and disaster response more accessible, practical and inclusive.

A key part of the project is the development of inclusive first-aid courses for people with disabilities. These courses will provide accessible, practical knowledge and help participants feel more confident and prepared in emergency situations.

The project will also develop preparedness training for emergency and civil protection personnel. These courses will help responders better understand the needs of people with disabilities and support them appropriately during rescue operations and disaster situations.

Accessible training materials, practical guidelines and train-the-trainer resources will be developed for both areas. The new concepts will be tested in a realistic practical exercise and improved together with the people who will use them.

The result: stronger skills, greater awareness and emergency response systems that work better for everyone.
