If you don´t prepare before an emergency you waste valuable time in the early hours of the emergency deciding how to respond and then trying to inform others what the plan is so that it can be implemented. The aftermath of a disaster is not the time to prepare a response, that it is the time for action. The time for preparing is now.
Cornerstones of the Rainrace Services
Consultation
From an extensive background in disaster management, Rainrace consultants understand the common thread and underlying principles that form the base of any disaster preparedness and response, while appreciating the need for different approaches for different societies/clients.
Training
Increased knowledge and understanding through training is an integral part of any progress. The Rainrace training material is based on the philosophy that people learn when training excites their interest and their curiosity, thus making them want to learn.
Research
There is still need for improvement in our understanding of disasters, crisis and accidents, how we lessen their impact, prepare for them and respond. Rainrace consultants participate in research projects to improve themselves and their work, and to contribute to the overall field of disaster management for the benefit of all.
Why are we unique?
Multi-level experience ranging from the field; working with victims, to the government; working with politicians. Cross-sectional experience within the field of disaster management from different hazards to different response disciplines, from practitioners to researchers. This diverse experience creates a clear picture of the big picture.
Our strengths - built on experience and knowledge
The strength of Rainrace is in understanding situations, problems and gaps, finding solutions and developing new ideas, and in implementing changes effectively.
