Emergency preparedness: an important social task
The importance of emergency preparedness has increased in recent years, and not without reason. The Corona pandemic has shown us how important it is to be well prepared for unexpected events. In addition, severe weather events have shown that rescue workers cannot always be there immediately to provide help. The Federal Office for Civil Protection and Disaster Relief therefore recommends thinking about your own emergency plan in good time explains the BBK.
Civil protection in Germany has a long history and has constantly developed since the difficult times after the Second World War. The Technical Relief Agency (THW) was founded in 1950 to create safe structures for disaster relief operations. Over time, various institutions and laws were brought into being, which today operate within the framework of a comprehensive disaster protection system. Regular training and exercises are also part of this system in order to be able to act in the event of a disaster and to ensure comprehensive crisis management according to Wikipedia.
The upcoming infomobile in Germersheim is not just an information event, but also a building block for a safe and resilient community that can act independently in emergencies. It is a call to all citizens to actively address the issue, because being prepared means protecting yourself and others.
