60–75 minutes · Self-guided learning
Conflict risk can build gradually, which gives time to prepare. Drawing on experience in Ukraine, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Chechnya and Syria, this module focuses on practical steps: documents, a go-bag, a family communication plan, and how to check information before you act on it or share it. Participation is always at your own pace, and the focus is on preparedness.
You will learn to
- recognise the common risks conflict and displacement bring, and that they are not unique to any one country
- prepare a household plan covering documents, a go-bag, evacuation, communication and support for vulnerable people
- take appropriate protective action if the security situation changes, including how to verify information
- identify one household action and one community action to complete this month
