| Résumé | (disponible en anglais seulement)
The presentation shares the benefits, social structure and mechanics of support groups in helping to deal with the complexities of understanding and managing
hazard risk. Within the theme of the 9th Annual CRHNet Symposium (lifeline connections) it examines support groups (user groups) as one element of networking (social networks) that help you mitigate, prepare, and respond to disasters. It uses
examples from active hazard and risk assessment and Hazus user groups. Support groups provide a lifeline in times of uncertainty and stress, whether that be caused by knowledge gaps, complex situations or threats. They can create multi-sectoral and
multi- disciplinary partnerships for mutual benefit, including forming and executing projects. Support groups have key properties distinct from operational networks. They are flexible and fluid and can adapt to the concerns and opportunities of the
day. They are the home of practical best practice. They rely on facilitative leadership of a community of practice and shared experiences. They require give and take. Support groups have terms of reference that define the boundaries of their
specialty and ways of sharing ideas and work; live or virtually. The social media of Web 2.0 provides many ways to interact quickly both locally and globally, making it easier to participate in user groups and gain access to the experiences of others
in similar situations. The complex toolkit of risk assessment is in increased demand to support decisions that manage risk and increase resilience. User groups are your lifeline, your safety net, for putting you at the forefront of making those
decisions. |
