This manual for facilitators in Community Based Disaster Preparedness (CBDP) is the result of a decade of work of various Caribbean Red Cross Societies and draws on the experience of hundreds of Red Cross volunteers and beneficiaries. It also reflects the priorities that the Red Cross has developed world wide with the inclusion of the Vulnerability Capacity Assessment (VCA) methodology, a way of working that promotes full participation and encourages integrated solutions to the challenges that communities face in becoming better prepared.
