Vanuatu is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world due to its location in the Pacific Ring of Fire. Community Disaster and Climate Change Committees help empower local communities to prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters by training first aid officers, helping schools develop risk management plans, and simulating disasters to test emergency response plans, with a focus on vulnerable groups. These committees provide a smart investment in risk management by establishing social infrastructure and local institutions that give communities the knowledge and tools to manage both disasters and climate change while also aiding the state in effective disaster preparation, response, and recovery.

The Total Flood Warning System: a review of the conceptNeil Dufty
The Total Flood Warning System concept is promoted by the Australian Government and is widely used in the design of Australia’s early flood warning systems. The Total Flood Warning System concept is technically robust in comparison with international flood warning system frameworks. However, it is not as ‘total’ as it might be. This paper looks at six other components identified that make the system holistic and more effective.

This paper evaluates the Emergency Planning in the UK Public Services. Emergency responses and interventions are focused on delivering essential facilities are always unique depending on the situation under assessment. As emergency response groups are at the forefront in leading for interventions in case of a catastrophe, the public has a role to play at each local community level. Emergency situations have helped the locals to learn how to mitigate and strengthen the effects of conditions that require urgent attention. Responses have led to enhance the capacity of the personnel and the public involved in intervening in community response (Yáñez-Arancibia et al., 2014). Community response teams have been formed which educate residents on their preparedness in cases when disaster strikes equipping them with disaster response skills. Pieces of training have been conducted at the local level as a means of creating jointly available quality assistance when disaster looms. Considering the effects disasters have had in communities, community reserve volunteers have been seen applying for vacancies in UK emergency response organizations to help the locals in case of a crisis.

Disasters natural or man-made can destroy lives and properties on a very large scale, often pushing nation, in the quest for progress, back by several decades, thus, efficient management of disasters, rather than more response to their occurrence has received increased attention in the country.
Program of Disaster Management in INdia.SurajSaini60
Disaster management is a crucial aspect of ensuring the safety and well-being of communities in the face of natural or man-made calamities. It encompasses a comprehensive set of strategies aimed at mitigating the impact of disasters, responding effectively during crises, facilitating recovery, and implementing measures to prevent or minimize future risks. At its core, disaster management involves proactive planning, coordination, and resource allocation to enhance resilience and reduce vulnerability to various hazards.
The first phase of disaster management is preparedness, where efforts are focused on building capacity, developing emergency response plans, and conducting training and drills to enhance readiness. This includes stockpiling essential supplies, establishing communication channels, and educating the public about safety measures. During the response phase, immediate actions are taken to address the emergency, including search and rescue operations, medical assistance, and evacuation efforts. Effective coordination among emergency responders and timely deployment of resources are critical for minimizing casualties and damage.
The recovery phase involves efforts to restore essential services, rebuild infrastructure, and provide support to affected individuals and communities. This includes assessing the extent of damage, mobilizing resources for reconstruction, and offering psychological counseling to those traumatized by the disaster. Additionally, the mitigation phase focuses on long-term strategies to reduce risks and vulnerabilities, such as implementing land-use planning measures, strengthening building codes, and raising awareness about disaster preparedness. By adopting a holistic approach to disaster management, communities can enhance their resilience and adaptability in the face of future challenges.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
