ENSURE

ENSURE – Emergency Responders Upskilling System for Enhanced Resilience and Innovation

Climate change in Europe is increasingly marked by severe impacts, particularly in the form of extreme weather events and forest fires. In the face of natural disasters, emergency responders (firefighters, search and rescue teams, and support personel) are pivotal. Their efficiency hinges on various factors, including preparedness, equipment, and coordination. The ENSURE project specifically addresses these aspects with a focus on Disaster Response Capacity upskilling skills and enhancing the resilience and innovation capacities of such emergency responders.

Our ENSURE methodology applies a holistic Capacity Building Intervention applying a bundle of interconnected actions including self-paced open courses, virtual mentoring, mobility and ToT workshops. The ENSURE Game uses Experiential Learning Cycle combined with Game-Based Learning to ensure practical application and continuous professional development of the target group.
