We are pleased to announce the launch of our new thematic page: “Social Media in Civil Protection and Disaster Management”.

Fast, direct, far-reaching – social media is transforming the way information is disseminated and received during crisis situations. How can emergency services, authorities, and the public use these channels effectively? What challenges arise in this context? And what structures, strategies, and tools are needed to integrate social media meaningfully into civil protection?

The DKKV sincerely thanks Dr.-Ing. Ramian Fathi, expert in emergency and crisis management and founding member and spokesperson of the Virtual Operations Support Team (VOST) at THW, for his valuable support in developing this thematic page.
