Lesson 4 – key takeaways

Everyone involved in the response to an emergency is trying to do the best they can to resolve the situation and help the affected people.

The key takeaways from this module are:

From the community to national level, there are a set of partnership-working principles to help everyone to work better together: communication, collaboration, coordination, understanding of risk, and shared understanding.

Partnership working on emergency management happens all the time. It is a continuous process that isn't only activated when an emergency happens.

Connecting with other groups locally will benefit your emergency resilience activities. The more groups work together, the more likely an effective response to an emergency is.
