  4. 3. Identification of key factors that support and limit action plan implementation after a SimEx and suggestions on how to overcome the challenges

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet; Lunds universitet/Riskhantering (CI)

    Författare :Zeth Söderlund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :simulation exercise; evaluation; action plan; implementation; challenges; usefulness; improve; learning; lessons learnt; debrief session; capacity development; capacity strengthening; capacity building; disaster risk management; disaster risk reduction; emergency preparedness; disaster preparedness; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : It is difficult to prepare for events with large-scale consequences and low probability. Simulation exercises (SimEx) provide the opportunity to improve preparedness through strengthening capabilities before an actual emergency. Conducting a SimEx could be very expensive and therefore the SimEx should be thoroughly evaluated. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :Risk Communication; Community Engagement; Co-production of knowledge; Public health emergencies; Infodemic; Outbreak response; Disinformation; Misinformation; Rumor management; Covid-19; Development Communication;

    Sammanfattning : This research explores how community-centered solutions facilitate the success and ownership of the response actions to deal with a public health emergency, such as the Covid-19 pandemic. When an outbreak or a hazard impacts a group of people, there is a strong need for communication in order to be able to access to the right information that takes people to make the correct decision and thus to take a protective action to be safe.
