Description
The LINKS project aims to consolidate knowledge on how Social Media and Crowdsourcing can be used to strengthen disaster resilience. The results of the project feed into a strategic LINKS Framework with useful resources for creating more disaster resilient communities, and to help stakeholders working in disaster risk management, and in particular practitioners (e.g. civil protection agencies), to focus on what’s important when considering the application of Social Media and Crowdsourcing in disasters. The LINKS Framework is presented in the LINKS Community Center (LCC), the online platform providing a user-friendly access to the LINKS results and a means to exchange knowledge and experiences.
