Risk Action Day 2024: everyone resilient to risks

Since 2022, the Government has established National Resilience Day (JNR).

The 3rd edition of the JNR will be held on October 13which is also the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction of the United Nations (UN).

The JNR thus aims to raise awareness, inform and acculturate all citizens to the natural and technological risks that surround them.

The 2024 call for projects makes it possible to label actions that meet at least one of the three objectives of the day: inform yourself, react, protect yourself.

Supported projects can be implemented, for example, in businesses, schools and local authorities.

To participate, project leaders are invited to submit their labeling requests via the “Simplified procedures” platform:

• Projects can be labeled throughout the year, but only projects taking place between October 1 and 31, 2024 will be able to compete for a prize for the 2024 edition of the “All Resilient to Risks” day. In this case, applications must be submitted until Wednesday October 2, 2024 at 11:59 p.m.
• To facilitate the emergence of projects carried out by candidates with limited means, financial assistance may be granted.
• You will find attached the regulations for this call for projects, also available via the following link: https://www.ecologie.gouv.fr/journee-nationale-resilients-face-aux-risks

For example, in Oise, during the last edition, several events were organized:

• high school students came to perform an industrial accident exercise at the prefecture, in front of the France 3 cameras, and were able to carry out the first full-scale test of the population alert system, Fr-Alert.
• the city of Creil presented to its population its Municipal Information Document on Major Risks (DICRIM);
• the First Aid Institute has proposed awareness-raising actions on major risks among audiences in local missions and in high schools;
• the RESILIANCES association and the Oise-Aisne Agreement proposed an audit of companies located in the Oise Valley, with a view to assessing their level of resilience to the risk of flooding;
