We recognise the broad spectrum of underlying factors that contribute to disasters, and the diverse range of work required to reduce risk and prepare for the future.
Our focus areas include:
Disaster planning
Developing plans and tools for disasters requires a team with emergency management knowledge and experience to guide your approach. We work with you to understand your objectives and develop contemporary plans and doctrine.
Volunteering
Volunteering is rapidly evolving, particularly in a disaster management context. These foundational shifts pose challenges to established organisations who rely on volunteer workforces to undertake critical roles during disasters. Our team have expert knowledge, access to specialist networks and on-the-ground experience coordinating both formal and informal disaster volunteers.
We have unique and specialist knowledge in relation to mobilising informal / spontaneous volunteers and can support with the development of plans and strategies, provide guidance, facilitate workshops or training activities and advise operational leaders through insightful presentations or keynotes. We work with your organisation to support the mobilisation of communities during disasters – which is an increasing challenge across the world.
Communications and Crisis Response
The rapid pace of technological change requires organisations to redefine their approach to communicating, particularly during a crisis. Communities and key stakeholders now desire more information during a crisis, across an increasingly number of diverse channels. Our team can provide guidance and develop communications strategies and tactics to enable your organisation to reach and engage your audience.
We work with a variety of clients across a broad range of industries to support with their communications needs – both within and outside of a crisis.
Engagement
When engaging stakeholders and communities about emergency and disaster related initiatives, Beyond Disaster has the experience and knowledge to engage with impact and achieve outcomes. Whether it’s the development of tools and materials or facilitation, we can assist to ensure your engagement is successful.
Digital strategy and marketing
Using our team’s technical knowledge, we support organisations and businesses to be seen. We work in both disaster management and across other industries to lift the profile of organisations, build public sentiment and trust and increase awareness. Our team can grow your presence and immunise your brand against future threats.
