Disaster Preparedness Hosted by the IFRC crepd.cruzroja.org
• 2022 expenditure: CHF 450,000 The Reference Centre for Institutional Disaster
Preparedness focuses on knowledge manage-
ment and National Society capacity development
in the areas of education, research, lessons
learned, development of educational structures,
online education, platform management, inclu-
sive learning, and disaster risk reduction.
Its scope is aligned to the IFRC’s
Strategy 2030 and its strategic priorities of climate and environ-
ment, disasters and crises, migration and identity,
and values, power and inclusion, within the
quality system of ISO 9001 certification. These
are addressed through training, development of
tools, technical assistance, and virtual education.
In 2022, the centre worked with 22 National
Societies, trained more than 8,000 people in per-
son, virtually or through the Red Cross Campus,
and developed seven new training solutions and
studies related to
Strategy 2030 . The Innovation
Network of the Americas was launched and the
Learn to Change Programme was promoted.
This initiative now has 30 National Society facil-
itators, with 22 new facilitators now certified.
Webinars were supported that reached more
than 1,200 people.
Globally, the centre is part of the Preparedness
for Effective Response (PER) advisory and work-
ing groups supporting the maintenance of the
PER results repository, and the PER component
on the IFRC’s GO platform, the review of global
products such as response and contingency
plans, National Disaster Response Team training,
among others.
