Procedures that participants follow (INEGMA-E²)

An evaluator needs to know why participants do certain things and whether they follow their own procedures, which are different from those of the evaluator's country, or whether they have no procedures but improvise.

Overcoming language barriers in exercise evaluation (AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH.)

Communication is a relevant factor in collaboration when carrying an exercise into execution. In order to provide a basis for a communication, that makes the integration of all participants possible, language barriers have to be taken into consideration.

Feux de forêt : modèles spatiaux et temporels des incendies (DRMKC)

Les mesures de gestion et de déploiement des ressources pour prévenir les feux dépendent de l'endroit et de la manière du déclenchement des incendies. La compréhension de ce qui rend une zone particulièrement susceptible de brûler ou non est non seulement importante pour conserver ses valeurs et ressources, mais aussi pour empêcher que les mesures de gestion futures, en particulier dans les zones où les incendies s'accumulent, ne donnent pas lieu à une vulnérabilité accrue aux feux de forêt.

Adequate collaboration and communication guidelines and methodology (STAMINA)

Crisis management is a collective effort encompassing various organisations that need to work seamlessly together across domain and administrative borders.

Strategic

Feux de forêt : écologie du feu (DRMKC)

Comprendre la vulnérabilité et le potentiel des écosystèmes à s'adapter à de tels changements peuvent aider à développer des stratégies de proactive et de régénération post-incendie.

 

Strategic

Feux de forêts : aspects sociaux (DRMKC)

Comprendre la manière dont les changements de caractéristiques sociales et économiques de la population peuvent créer les conditions d'un d'incendie accru dans différents pays et régions est une condition indispensable pour réduire le niveau d'exposition des communautés locales à travers un meilleur aménagement paysager.

Capabilities and expertise of the observers (INEGMA-E²)

Evaluators need to be aware of the topic that shall be evaluated, knowledge is needed on how to evaluate. 

Examples of topics: CBRN, wildfire, flooding.

If participants don't have knowledge about the observer’s knowledge and capabilities and expertise, they will lose trust.

COLLECTION OF FEEDBACK FROM EXERCISE ORGANIZATION AND CONTROL STAFF (INEGMA-E²)

To find out if the exercise was conducted in an optimal way and if the plan of the exercise was respected.

SOP for the evaluator (INEGMA-E²)

  • SOPs for defining methodology and proces of the evaluation based on its type
  • defining the methodology (literature review, interview, , etc.) 
  • should cover all phases of exercise planning/execution
  • model for a final report

Evaluators Assessment (INEGMA-E²)

Evaluators should be from a correct field/have to have expertise in the specific area. If an evaluator of a process is needed, then a generalistic approach would work. Evaluators of evaluators need to have skills in management and processes. Activities from organisational work are needed as well as understanding of evaluation processes.

  • (National/Critical Infrastructure) Sensible Information Security
  • Quality management of the evaluation

Overview of an exercise for evaluators (AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH.)

When conducting an exercise, evaluators play an important role in examining the workflow of the exercise. For them having information about the general setup of the exercise is necessary.

Clear objectives for the exercise (INEGMA-E²)

Without clearly defined objectives it’s impossible to measure if the exercise was successful or not. They are necessary to give value to an exercise.
