VIDEO INTRO: So after a couple of countries have brought out their preparedness guidelines (like, for example, the UK with the Be Ready campaign), now also the European Commission has taken steps to prepare Europeans for growing risks in a crisis. This document has come out quite recently at the beginning of November. As Europe faces increasingly frequent and complex crises, the European Commission has stepped up efforts to strengthen preparedness across the European Union.
From helping citizens to protect themselves during emergencies to ensuring that national civil protection systems can keep operating when disaster strikes, the EU is delivering concrete measures to make Europe more resilient. Today at the European Civil Protection Forum, the Commissioner for Equality Preparedness and Crisis Management presented new guidelines to help people and communities prepare for emergencies, including during the first 72 hours of a crisis.
These initiatives built on a recently adopted commission recommendation on operational continuity and stress testing to strengthen the resilience of national civil protection contact points across Europe. Together they mark further progress in delivering the EU preparedness union strategy, turning Europe's preparedness ambitions into practical action. New guidelines to strengthen population preparedness. From packing essentials in an emergency bag to knowing how to react when disaster strikes, preparedness starts with practical steps.
The commission's new guidelines will help authorities give people the knowledge and tools they need to protect themselves and others in a crisis. Here are the four key areas.
There will be a 72-hour self-sufficiency helping people meet their essential needs during the first three days of an emergency while public assistance is mobilized, including through essential emergency supplies and emergency grab packs. Second, preparedness education. Integrating preparedness into early childhood and primary education curricula and providing training for educators. Helping children develop preparedness skills from an early age through accessible age-appropriate activities without creating fear or anxiety.
Okay, this is very concerning. This is not just "we are going to prepare the population for a three-day blackout." No, we are going to educate the school children in early childhood in the primary education curricula. So apparently they know that something will happen, a crisis that is going to take a really long time. Why else would you want to prepare the children then?
Because if there's just a blackout for 3 days or 72 hours, you don't need to prepare the children like this. Oh my god. [...] I don't want to say anything, but I think I and many other preppers feel vindicated after reading this.
EU preparedness day. To help make preparedness a shared priority across Europe, the commission is proposing to establish an annual EU preparedness day. It will encourage citizens and communities to take an active role in preparing for emergencies to protect themselves and others...
