The EM-CITY Project Background and Training Path

 

The EM-CITY Project is designed to promote social cohesion among diverse groups within local communities during emergencies. Recognizing that effective communication and inclusion are critical challenges in emergency situations, the project focuses on empowering young people to play a pivotal role in bridging these gaps. Properly sensitized and involved, young individuals can facilitate relations among different community groups, including young and elderly people, families, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) communities, and long-time residents. One of the main obstacles during emergency activities is the limited communication among these various groups living together in the local area. Ensuring that all groups are included in emergency plans at the same level is not always straightforward. The EM-CITY Project addresses this issue by fostering interactions and understanding among community members. The aim of this training module is to provide a comprehensive guide and content for trainers, emergency management authorities, NGOs, and CP operators to equip young volunteers with the necessary knowledge, skills, and tools to act as "interactive bridges" within their communities during emergencies. The sessions were defined based on the need analysis done within the scope of the action research. Each module consists of the collection of activities/workshops, instructions and context created by participants and trainers of EM-CITY Project.
