The Regional Resilience Partnerships' Risk Preparedness Assessment
The RRP RPA allows RRPs to assess risks and their level of preparedness to deal with the consequences of the identified risks within their region, and communicate with the general public about the risks identified in the RRP RPA.
The RRP RPA focuses on developing resilience and dealing with consequences of rather than causes of emergencies.
There are 4 stages to the RRP RPA:
- Understanding the context in the region and identifying the relevant risks based on knowledge and historical or empirical data and review of the NSRA and SRA.
- Assessing these risks using the best available evidence bases on the reasonable worst-case scenario.
- Assessing the level of preparedness to deal with consequences of these risks and then developing a work plan aimed at filling any capability and capacity gaps.
- Communicating with the public.
