Numa era que que a informação se encontra à distância de um clique morrem dezenas de pessoas por falta de informação.
Depois do incêndio florestal de Pedrogão Grande, a 17 junho de 2017, ao qual ninguém ficou indiferente, temos o dever e a obrigação de contribuir de alguma forma para que tal jamais volte a acontecer. A proteção civil somos todos e temos por isso a obrigação de nos educar/reeducar, também, para o Risco.
Esta dissertação permite validar algum do conhecimento adquirido por senso comum em matéria de informação e sensibilização à população sénior, aferindo a eficácia da informação que lhes chega no âmbito do risco e proteção civil.
O inquérito realizado a 450 cidadãos seniores do concelho de Nisa e de Vila Velha de Rodão permitiu concluir que o desconhecimento sobre os riscos é transversal a género, idade e habilitações literárias. E que a informação não lhes está a chegar, sendo, por isso, urgente mudar o paradigma e realçar a necessidade de uma nova visão.
A implementação prática de processos e hábitos seguros pode, independentemente da sua dimensão, constituir-se num forte desafio. Todos sabemos o quão difícil é mudar mentalidades.
É de certa forma para colmatar uma necessidade identificada que surge o projeto “Hoje por Vós, Amanhã por Nós”, que aspira ser de cariz nacional e cujo objetivo principal é municiar o cidadão sénior de conhecimentos teórico-práticos tornando-o mais resiliente em situações de catástrofe ou emergência.
In an age where information is at a click distance dozens of people die for lack of information. After the forest fire of Pedrogão Grande, on June 17, 2017, to which no one was indifferent, we have the duty and the obligation to contribute in some way so that it will never happen again. We are all civil protection and therefore have the obligation to educate / reeducate, also, to Risk. This dissertation allows to validate some of the knowledge gained by common sense in information and sensitization to the senior population, gauging the effectiveness of the information that reaches them in the scope of risk and civil protection. The survey of 450 senior citizens from the municipality of Nisa and Vila Velha concluded that the lack of knowledge about the risks is transversal to gender, age and educational attainment. And that information is not coming to them, so it is urgent to change the paradigm and highlight the need for a new vision. The practical implementation of safe processes and habits can, regardless of their size, be a major challenge. We all know how hard it is to change mindsets. It is in a way to fill an identified need that arises the project “Today for you tomorrow for us”, which aspires to be of a national nature and whose main objective is to provide senior citizens with practical theoretical knowledge making them more resilient in disaster situations or emergency.
