Description
The Disability Inclusive Emergency Management (DIEM) Toolkit is a series of resources that support emergency planners, governments, and disability and community organisations to ensure disability inclusion is part of emergency preparedness planning. The Toolkit is helping to address recommendations of the Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability.
The Toolkit has 4 parts:
- Overview: provides an overview of the different elements of the Toolkit. It explains how it facilitates self-assessment, encourages collaboration, and guides tailored action planning.
- Principles and Practical Action Guide: supports emergency planners to translate principles for disability inclusive emergency management into practical actions for a consistent national approach. The guide provides roadmaps and templates to help plan, implement and monitor progress.
- Organisational Emergency Preparedness Profile: supports organisations to assess and document their level of emergency preparedness, capabilities, and potential to contribute to disability inclusive emergency management.
- Resource Map: shares good practice resources for disability inclusive emergency management.
