Título

Risk communication and community engagement

Descripción

Communities are at the heart of every response. Effective risk communication and community engagement (RCCE) supports communities and individuals in understanding the risks they face and making informed decisions about how to protect themselves and the people around them. Accurate information, provided to communities in ways they understand and respect, builds trust and supports the success of prevention, response and recovery efforts.

Social sciences – including sociology, psychology and anthropology, among other disciplines – are an important part of developing effective RCCE interventions that are sensitive to the cultural, historical and behavioural perspectives of communities. In this channel, you will learn about how to apply social sciences to build trust and ensure that communities are equal partners in developing solutions before, during and after emergencies.
