As part of the EU-funded Erasmus Plus project RESILIENT VOICES, two new surveys on disaster preparedness have been launched. The aim is to gain a better understanding of how different population groups perceive risks such as storms, floods or heatwaves, and what support they need before, during and after crises. The surveys are being conducted by the German Committee for Disaster Risk Reduction (DKKV) in collaboration with Auxilia GroupeSOS.
One survey is aimed at members of the public, particularly vulnerable groups, and examines their perceptions, needs and opportunities for participation. The second survey is aimed at professionals, aid organisations and experts who work with vulnerable groups, and focuses on existing structures, challenges and approaches to more inclusive disaster preparedness.
Both surveys are conducted online, take around 10 minutes to complete, are anonymous, and are available in German, English and French. By taking part, you can share your views and experiences and thus contribute to the further development of inclusive and practical disaster preparedness.
