The Study Centre Civil Protection System - Italian Institute for Resilience, was founded 16th December 2010 in Spoleto (Italy). The Italian Institute for Resilience isthe first Study Centre , in Italy, that has as main topic Resilience as theorized by the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction. Of course we want to propose an Italian course of action and point of view about the Resilience. For these reasons the Institute has brought many national and international experts, coming from many different fields of study. The action of the Study Centre revolves around the reduction of both the value of risk and the magnitude of Emergency in the Italian territory but, of course, it is also working to built a network with the best Organizations that work in the field of Resilience.
We are working on these main targets to diffuse the concept of Resilience and the consequent development of resilient actions, which need a strong interdisciplinary action, lanning and training through the realization of seminaries, work-shops, courses, training courses, etc..
We work especially about about the priority n. 3 and 5 of Hyogo Framework for Action
Every Year, the Institute organize different events:
•an annual National meeting of Resilience in Civil Protection;
•3 seminars about Resilience at University or other organizations;
•courses and training courses for volunteers and professional rescue teams.
In all the seminars the Resilience we are going to speak about the importance of Communication during a Crisis or Emergency. We always talk about the importance of 112 as the unique number for the rescue service, not only for emergency calls but also for organizing rescue operations in a multidisciplinary contest. We have a wide vision about this, not only a unique European emergency number, but about a unique emergency operation centre that can merge together the emergency planning and the emergency operations. Perhaps we are looking too far ahead, but it is the only way to build a resilient community. I It is having also mean a resilience emergency centre where it would be possible to have prevention (emergency planning) and rescue (emergency management) together.
At the moment, I don’t have documents or material about our seminars in English, but if you want I can send them to you in Italian.

The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
