Supply side highlights
Survey on existing courses and modules
Reports received from
• Metaforum
• SUDGESTAID
• UNIBO/ SERINAR
• VGTU/GATWEB/ALAL
• UoH
• UDANET
Metaforum, Spain
• In terms of Spanish speaking market, most countries in Central and South America have resilience capacitation programmes. Many of them addressing the post catastrophe psycological aspects of victims and professionals. Few of them in Spain and some linked to the military and diplomatic bodies.
• There exist a Spanish Institute for Resilience managed by a Professor of psychiatry of the Universidad de Alcalá de Henares who is Chief of the Psychiatric Service of the Central Hospital of the Defense.
• Emergencies Committees of South and Central America met in Costa Rica and asked for a
continuous education and training system, without specification of required skills. They ask for a permanent training programme for committees' members.
• There are some guides for resilience trainers to help them to prepare and teach their training modules.
• There are a number of short courses and training initiatives related with stress management and personal resilience.
• Business resilience is starting to be considered as something to be taken into account, but its offer and demand in terms of disciplines and capacitation is minimal. Only the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia has made and published an initiative to measure business resilience.
SUDGESTAID, Italy
• Italian Masters in International Cooperation, do not incorporate modules in Resilience management.
• The nearest class of competences to resilience addressed in Italian Masters is represented by the "disaster risk reduction”, “disaster management” and by "crisis prevention and recovery".
• SUDGESTAID has proposed a module on resilience for Masters in International Cooperation. The key themes identified are:
• Resilience, humanitarian assistance and development
• EU approach to resilience: learning from food crises
• How to plan for resilience
• Tools and projects for resilience
UNIBO/ SERINAR
UNIBO/ SERINAR have proposed three areas for pilot courses
• Socio Economic resilience – Macro approach
• Management and Leadership in the emergency situations –Meso approach
• Techno-structure resilience (Engineering, Architecture and ICT) –Micro approach
VGTU/ GATWEB/ ALAL
BSc degree programmes• There is just one Bachelor study program directly related to resilience management in Vilnius Gediminas
Technical University – Fire Protection (Continual studies).
MSc degree programmes• There is just one Master study program directly related to resilience management in Vilnius Gediminas Technical
University – Safety Engineering (Continual studies), specialization of Fire and Rescue Operation Safety and Management.
• There are several modules related to resilience management in Master study programs, for example, “Technical behaviour of building structures and their fire resistance” module in Master study program of Civil Engineering
Research degree programmes• There are no P.H.D. study programs directly related to resilience management in Vilnius Gediminas Technical
University but there are several modules related to resilience management in some P.H.D. study programs.• The general part modules in P.H.D. studies of Civil Engineering (02T) scientific field program: “Theory of Fire
Process of Building Composites” , “Fire Factors and Parameters” and modules of selected part such as: “Assessment of fire resistance of building structures” , “Assessment of fire resistance of wooden constructions” .
• Modules of selected part in P.H.D. studies of Materials Engineering (08T) scientific field program: “Technology of Refractory Materials” , “Reaction to Fire and Fire Resistance of Building Materials”
UoH, UK
BSc degree programmes• Five institutions are offering eight BSc degree programmes related to disaster resilience and
management. • These courses focuses on disaster resilience and management; emergency planning; geography;
natural and environment hazards; risk and security management; and public safety.
MSc degree programmes• 15 institutions are offering 22 MSc degree programmes related to disaster resilience and
management. • These courses mainly focuses on environmental hazards; disaster resilience, management and
risk reduction; earthquake engineering; emergency planning and response; humanitarian actions and engineering and computing; disaster healthcare; shelter; conflicts; and adaptation and development.
Research degree programmes• 7 institutions are offering research degree programmes related to disaster resilience and
management in the form of PhDs, MPhils and MSc by Research.
• These courses provide the opportunity for researchers to deepen the knowledge and skills in a variety of subject lines in relation to disaster resilience and management.
UoH, UK – Proposed themes

their impacts; and disaster management cycle• How vulnerability can be assessed• Risk reduction interventions• Vulnerability and development• Environmental risks and developing resilience• Community resilience• Disaster preparedness, response and long- term recovery activitiesMSc degree programmes• Hazards, vulnerability and resilience• Introduction to disaster management• Integrating science into risk and disaster reduction• Reconstruction, development and disaster risk reduction• Emergency & crisis planning• Disaster relief (pre, during and post)• Assessments of vulnerable/exposed features and risk of disaster• The logistics of emergency planning and disaster management• Disaster response and post disaster recovery• Communicating in and training for disasters• Management and leadership of emergency incidents• Shelter after disaster
UDANET
UDANET have proposed three potential areas for to develop professional courses
• A basic definition of resilience
• The detailed approach mainly divided into socio-economic, psychological, technical (ICT)
• Human resource and the management of emergency situation
Demand side highlights
Market needs in the resilience management
Reports received from
• Metaforum
• UDANET
• There is a paper written by UNIBO but it was in Italian
• In the VGTU report, there is reference to other projects,
so need to proof read them in making sure that there is
explicit reference to RESINT
Metaforum, Spain
• More than 80% of municipalities still do not have their Municipal Emergencies Plans.
• There is no evidence of a set of requirements in terms of required capacities and competences by the MEP's. But they require continuous education and training to assure management and organization before, during and after disasters
UDANET
• A survey was conducted on non profit organizations
• Principal orientation is on social and psychological science with specialization on the situation of children, teenagers, local communities, small business and SMART cities.
• The main demands identified were:
• explain and disseminate the resilience approach
• what is the resilience and how existing systems and knowledge could be interconnected and integrated to better the capabilities of local communities to recover the situation before the emergency.
