Title: Disasterville: A Training, Skills Refresher and Educational Tool
Description: Disasterville is an interactive hands-on activity that helps as a great knowledge refresher/training tool, and is useful for preparedness education.
Disasterville is useful for Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT), Medical Reserve Corps (MRC), and Community Organizations Active in Disasters (COAD), as well as local officials, Emergency Managers, professional responders, and the general public.
Disasterville is designed as a table-top activity simulating a town set up with small buildings and figurines. The toolkit has markers to set up a disaster scene of your choosing, including infrastructure damages, structure damages, and victim conditions. This incorporates additional table-top components such as an emergency operation center, a medical treatment area, and a hospital or healthcare area.
Timeframe: 1 hr 30 min is best.
