Stjernholm, Linda LU ; Magnusson, Charlotte LU orcid ; Rassmus-Gröhn, Kirsten LU orcid and Borell, Jonas LU orcid (2024) 128. p.74-81
Abstract
In response to escalating disasters, inclusive crisis planning is crucial. This study examines a specialized workshop that engaged people with disabilities in crisis planning, focusing on a simulated flood scenario.

The workshop facilitated knowledge exchange and surfaced disability-specific issues. While successful in raising awareness, challenges arose in relaying detailed perspectives, emphasizing the need for nuanced communication. Locally relevant scenarios strengthened the workshop's impact. The findings stress the importance of early involvement of individuals with... (More)

While successful in raising awareness, challenges arose in relaying detailed perspectives, emphasizing the need for nuanced communication. Locally relevant scenarios strengthened the workshop's impact. The findings stress the importance of early involvement of individuals with disabilities in crisis planning and offer insights for researchers and policymakers. This research contributes to enhancing inclusivity in crisis planning and informs future disaster risk reduction. (Less)
