With the Village Smart Preparedness project
let's continue our joint preparedness work

The activities strengthen the crisis resilience of village communities

• The awareness, skills and community spirit of the villagers will be increased by organizing training and exercises taking into account different age groups.

• Volunteer village security teams will be established to speed up the assistance needed by villagers and act as a link to the authorities if necessary.

• Cooperation between villages, authorities, municipalities and voluntary organizations will be strengthened.

We are equipping village houses with village prefabricated houses

• The accessibility and equipment of village houses to function as village emergency houses will be promoted.

• The flow of information will be ensured by creating a village radio network covering the province and penetrating the security chain, taking into account training in the use of radio telephones and equipment maintenance.
