Figure 3
A timeline illustrates the sequence of a disaster response exercise, from briefing and scenario injections to post survey and review sessions.The figure shows a structured timeline for a disaster management exercise beginning with Start E x, followed by a pre survey and briefing. Ice breaking precedes thirteen injects simulating different scenarios such as disaster mitigation, pandemic and flood responses, and recovery phases. Each inject lasts between 15 and 60 minutes. A major intervention exposes participants to the operational framework, followed by two hot wash sessions and a post survey. The exercise concludes with End E x, ensuring evaluation and reflection on preparedness and response capabilities.
