PřipravmeSe! – From policy to practice
As part of the long-term sustainability of Prepared Czechia, three project partners have established PřipravmeSe! (Get Ready!), an income-generation platform that transforms the project’s expertise into practical services for organisations.
PřipravmeSe! delivers experiential crisis simulations, preparedness training, consulting and resilience workshops based on realistic scenarios and the expertise of leading security, emergency management and communication professionals. It helps organisations identify vulnerabilities before crises occur, strengthen operational resilience, and improve cooperation and communication across sectors.
The experience, feedback and lessons generated through these activities continuously feed back into the Prepared Czechia project, supporting the development of practical recommendations, standards and public policies for strengthening the Czech Republic’s overall crisis preparedness.
