2 The call for innovation Next generation damage and post-crisis needs assessment tool for reconstruction and recovery planning Complex crises situations, wide regions affected operational areas potentially worldwide and growing needs for longerlasting operations pose specific demands on the reconstruction and recovery planning capabilities of relief forces. This project aims at improving reconstruction and recovery planning capabilities of relief units by providing them with technologically improved, faster and more interoperable assessments tools as available today.

3 The COBACORE project Community-Based Comprehensive Recovery An EU funded project that aims to: close collaboration gaps between communities that play a role during disaster recovery make it easier to match needs with capacities help affected communities to voice their needs and find communities that can help

4 The disaster management challenge Climate Change; Economic Trends; Political Shifts; and Societal Trends Increasing pressure on response and recovery

5 Disaster recovery restoration of infrastructures property reconstruction institutional recovery economic recovery social and cultural recovery Disaster recovery is about bringing a disaster stricken area back into a stable, selfself-sustainable state many communities, many societal functions many interdependencies with surrounding areas long term effects on all facets of life

6 institutional domain mobility & transport built environment vital infrastructures social, cultural and educational domain healthcare economical domain security and safety environmental domain quality of life

7 Many communities municipalities businesses military organisations national governments media volunteers donors and advocacy groups NGO s needs professional care organisations social groups civilians online technical volunteers capacities

8 Many collaboration gaps

9 Many opportunites

10 The approach Community-Based Comprehensive Recovery Develop a vision on how communities can work together to recovery faster from disasters Build a demonstration platform that shows how current technologies can make that happen Create a network of supporters that can adopt the COBACORE outcomes and bring it into practice

11 The COBACORE communities

12 COBACORE issues responding professionals affected community self sustaining community needs & capacity matching responding community

13 The COBACORE approach The COBACORE platform closes collaboration gaps Support self-sustaining communities More effective recovery Needs overview Community-generated data Community awareness Marketplace Volunteer management Volunteer training Activity mapping

14 The COBACORE platform for professionals overview of needs, capacities, actors and activities merge operational data with communitygenerated data targeted communition means for status updates and instructions joint activity planning with communities for affected/responding communities means to voice needs and willingness to help make matches and join recovery activities personalised status updates obtain instructions from professionals

15 Testing the concept The COBAgame: a gamified evaluation of the COBACORE concepts live testing of the platform and interaction concept professionals and volunteers acting out the different communities from partitioned locations test the efficiency of self-organisation among groups with and without the COBACORE platform intermediate evaluation final evaluation June 2014, Rotterdam NL Tabletop-testing Evaluation of the core platform approx. 40 volunteers from the Red Cross and Rotterdam Safety Region Fictive disaster recovery scenario Summer 2015, Maastricht/Aachen NL Cross-border collaboration Evaluation of the final platform Field testing with participation of local parties, 100+ participants Realistic disaster recovery scenario

16 The way forward Further concept development What are valuable assets in such a platform? Understand adoption criteria why would people use it? Further platform development Which features are relevant for you as a user? What is a simple yet powerful workflow? How to stimulate group activities? Only by liking? How to incorporate training/instructions? How much of existing social media should be incorporated? What indicators would you need on a dashboard as professional? Generate community interest Align project with existing initiatives and domain demands Promote the integrated COBACORE approach Build specific national versions? If yes, how?

17 Framing the project outcome COBACORE as a global platform COBACORE as a national or regional platform COBACORE as a community-wide platform COBACORE as a professionals-only platform COBACORE as a all-purpose, all-hazard platform COBACORE as a thematic-oriented platform COBACORE as a government-led service COBACORE as a community-managed platform? COBACORE as a first step towards an operational tool COBACORE as an inspiration for other platforms

18 The role of the volunteer Public participation The role of social media in disaster recovery Coupling community- and professional information channels

19 Coordination and collaboration Trust in the selfself-reliance of disasterdisaster-stricken communities
