Last year, as you may recall, the HHS sponsored a very successful contest calling on the public to create a winning pandemic public service announcement (see Last Call For Voting On The HHS PSA Contest.)
This month FEMA has announced a challenge to the public to come up with creative ideas to help their communities get better prepared before a disaster strikes.
For details, follow the link below.
Preparing our Communities Before a Disaster Strikes
Come up with ideas on how we can all help prepare our communities.
Detailed description
Sharing the Responsibility to Protect Communities Against the Impacts of Disasters
THE CHALLENGE
To come up with ideas on how we can all help prepare our communities before disaster strikes and how the government can support community-based activities to help everyone be more prepared.
The sky is the limit. We want ideas from across the spectrum, from within whichever field you work, for whatever community in which you live. If you’re a doctor, what role can the medical community play? If you’re an artist, how can you use your medium to contribute?
This could be a new project or means of engaging the public to prepare for disasters on the individual or family level; a public service announcement about business preparedness to play on local radio or TV stations; or a new device, technology, application or piece of equipment to mitigate the effects of disaster.
Submissions will be judged based on originality, level of community engagement, and ease of implementation.
Just about everyone complains that the government never listens to them.
Well, here’s your chance to give FEMA your best ideas on how we call all work to better prepare our communities against disasters.
