Social-media based early warning system, neighbourhood-based whatsapp groups/subgroups; area leaders; pitch into ward-systems; area based task teams, esp in disaster-prone areas
Community conversations: Regular education & awareness gatherings, maybe monthly at local community halls/libraries/other, where topics of community care are presented and discussed - what is climate change? How does CC affect people where they live; how can we live differently to reduce global warming; what causes floods? how can we as a local community prepare for floods? Who can do what? What are emergency nodes in the event of a disaster (flood, fire, rampage, etc); How do we prepare our children? First Aid. Fire fighting; swimming skills; What is an AIP, and how to get rid of them? How to deal with anxiety? How to manage trauma, and who can help? How to manage grief?
Combination idea for all communities/wards/suburbs/precincts:
Develop early warning communications system→ Identify vulnerable people/communities → identify an organisational task team per area→Identify safe havens in areas (schools, churches, halls, open fields, etc) → Identify the first responder helpers (who should have basic training (first aid, fire & rescue, etc)Develop early warning comms system→ Identify the organisational helpers (NPOs/FBOs/CBOs/Police/Medics/Food suppliers/etc)→Create events to analyse disaster events and refine response experience
