Title Towards the Building of a Resilient City able to Face Flood Risk Scenarios Type Conference Article
Year 2020 Publication ISCRAM 2020 Conference Proceedings – 17th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal Iscram 2020
Volume Issue Pages 593-601
Keywords Risk Management; Floods; River Morphology; Resilience; IT
Abstract Despite the efforts that have been made to inform the community about the possible environmental risks, there is still a general lack of information. Currently, we are working on a flood risk scenario focused on a proposal towards a resilient culture together with the support of Information Technologies (IT) as a way to manage information. The goal is twofold: (i) on the one hand, to manage data in a small scenario to analyze and process the data collected from sensors in different sites in a micro-basin. Data get from data processing such as flow and velocity will then be the input data for hydraulic models to predict floods downstream; (ii) on the other hand, to publicize the predictions and the data already processed means people can benefit from information on flood risks, and the different participants may change their perception and consider cooperating in improving resilience.

Title Resilience Learning for Emergency Plan Management in Organizations Type Conference Article
Year 2020 Publication ISCRAM 2020 Conference Proceedings – 17th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal Iscram 2020
Volume Issue Pages 558-567
Keywords Resilience, Emergency Management, Training, QuEP, CiET.
Abstract Many governments, organizations, practitioners and researchers involved in collaboration on resilience in emergency management are agreed that this is a key aspect. The QuEP+R framework aims to improve resilience in an organization's emergency plan management, in which the stakeholders must be adequately prepared and trained for their responsibilities in the emergency plan, providing techniques that propose the improvement of the emergency plan besides resilience. However, for these techniques to be effective, organizations need the theoretical resilience proposed in QuE+R to be implemented. The CiET framework was designed for this purpose and has learning objectives and training contents related to QuEP+R techniques to train stakeholders. The CiET capability plan contents have been classified by resilience dimensions towards the optimization of resilience in emergency plan management. The integration is supported by I+R-Tool, which generates the capability plans automatically from the results of the QuEP+R assessment, which outcomes in a stakeholder's effective training, contributing to the optimization and improvement of the resilience, therefore, in improving the quality of emergency plans. Hence, the aim remains to search for the continuous improvement of the emergency plan management within organizations.

Title Towards a Capability Model for Emergency Training Improvement Type Conference Article
Year 2019 Publication Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response And Management Abbreviated Journal Iscram 2019
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Capability Model, Training, Emergency Management, Stakeholders, QuEP
Abstract Giving adequate attention to training personnel within an organization to perform an activity of any kind

determines its success or failure. Training in emergency management is a key point and the participants must have

adequate preparation for each activity they carry out. The different activities in each emergency management

phase generate the appropriate training according to the role performed by stakeholders. The training is provided

through techniques and IT support tools that consolidate the knowledge imparted by the trainer. This paper

describes the initial steps in creating a capability model to support the training of stakeholders and ensure the

effectiveness of the response teams, as well as the appropriate actions of workers and citizens in an emergency.

Knowledge is consolidated through training, evaluation and feedback from practice. The proposed model is being

integrated in the QuEP framework to guide organizations in assessing and improving the management of their

emergency plans.
