Disaster Preparedness Programs ｜ SafeTaiwan™
The founders of SafeTaiwan™ come from the life sciences. What first drew our attention was the family member most often overlooked during disasters — companion animals. Starting from pet evacuation preparedness, we gradually expanded our scope to comprehensive solutions for individuals, families, and businesses.
Yet during outreach, we kept hearing the same question: people had bought a disaster kit, but were unsure when to use it, how to use it, or where to keep it. This taught us that the product is only the starting point — what truly works in a critical moment is the awareness and habits built day to day.
So we began turning hands-on experience into structured curricula — starting from "how to assemble one disaster kit" and extending into 72-hour survival strategies, family preparedness planning, and pet evacuation, delivering disaster education programs for corporations, schools, government agencies, and community groups.
The SafeTaiwan™ team combines field experience with research-based methodology to design preparedness programs for diverse audiences. Corporate staff training, school-based education, and government emergency response training can all be tailored to the scale and context of the organization.
Scheduling is flexible — from one-hour talks to half-day or full-day workshops.
Everyday Preparedness Lecture
Built around the idea of bringing preparedness into daily life, this session reframes how we think about emergency supplies. It covers the logic behind 72-hour go-bag configuration, response guidelines for major hazard types, and a clear-eyed look at choosing emergency food and dispelling stockpiling myths. Suitable for schools, community groups, the general public, and media events.
Corporate & Organizational Training
Designed for corporations, retailers, multinationals, and government bodies, this program focuses on workplace evacuation response and personal preparedness mindset. Depth and duration are calibrated to organization size and need, with optional hands-on demonstrations of equipment. Available as a one-hour briefing or a half-day workshop.
Pets & Family Preparedness
Designed for pet owners, animal welfare organizations, and groups working on companion animal issues. Drawing on real cases from Taiwan and abroad, this module makes the case for shared preparedness, then walks participants through assembling a human-and-pet go-bag, planning evacuation routes, and managing pet care and emotional well-being inside shelters.
Disaster Fundamentals & First Aid
Aligned with Taiwan's Disaster Prevention Specialist syllabus, this course covers the national disaster response framework, fundamental first aid (CPR, AED, bleeding control), personal and household protective measures, and the operation of community evacuation shelters — building a systematic foundation for disaster response capability.
The course centered on a practical guide to assembling a disaster kit, helping faculty and students grasp the importance of emergency response and the basic logic of personal preparedness, with kit recommendations adapted for the campus environment.
The event also featured a live tasting of emergency foods spanning shelf-stable products, self-heating meals, and a range of preservation technologies — giving attendees a firsthand taste of how "no refrigeration needed" can still mean "good to eat," while clearing up common myths about emergency stockpiling.
The course was organized into three modules: (1) why preparedness matters; (2) safe evacuation and equipment selection; (3) shelter life and emotional care. A human-and-pet go-bag was demonstrated on site, and attendees received a Companion Animal Preparedness Handbook, an evacuation kit, and pet emergency contact cards to take home.
