MOBILISE Pilot Implementation in Manchester

The MOBILISE pilot in Manchester, UK, successfully demonstrated a technology platform's potential to enhance resilience through collaborative risk evaluation, disaster preparedness training, and community engagement, marking a significant advancement in regional resilience initiatives.

MOBILISE, Eagle-I and BConX Pilot in Sri Lanka

The Kalutara Living Lab project in Sri Lanka, leveraging MOBILISE and other technologies with support from the World Bank and key partners, has exemplified successful partnership-driven resilience-building, earning national recognition for its contribution to climate resilience and sustainable development.

Success Story: MOBILISE Pilot Implementation in Manchester

    We are thrilled to share the success story of the MOBILISE pilot implementation in Manchester, UK. This pilot, a collaborative effort between the Greater Manchester Resilience Forum and the University of Salford, marked a significant milestone in advancing resilience-building initiatives in the region. Supported by funding from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing, and Communities (DLUHC) under the Local Resilience Innovation programme, the pilot showcased the transformative potential of our technology platform through three national demonstrators:

  1. RESIDE (Risk Evaluation & Solutions in Digital Engagement): The RESIDE demonstrator created a digital platform that enabled cross-sector partners to collaborate effectively in establishing a comprehensive understanding of local risk factors. This innovative solution empowered stakeholders to make informed decisions and implement targeted risk mitigation strategies. Watch Video

  2. TIDE (Technology, Innovation, Driving Engagement): Through the TIDE demonstrator, we illustrated how disaster simulation environments could enhance multi-agency training and exercises, fostering greater preparedness and coordination among response teams. This immersive approach to training proved invaluable in enhancing resilience to potential disasters. Watch Video

  3. RISE (Resilience Innovation for Social Engagement): The RISE demonstrator showcased a digital platform designed to strengthen community engagement with government agencies in building resilience against disasters. By facilitating meaningful interactions and collaboration, this platform empowered communities to take proactive measures to safeguard their well-being. Watch Video

  4. The successful completion of the MOBILISE pilot in Manchester stands as a testament to the effectiveness and versatility of our technology platform in addressing complex resilience challenges. We extend our gratitude to all partners and stakeholders involved for their dedication and collaboration, paving the way for a more resilient and sustainable future.

MOBILISE, Eagle-I and BConX Pilot in Sri Lanka :

We are pleased to present the success of the Kalutara Living Lab project that piloted MOBILISE, Eagle-I, and BConX d in Sri Lanka. Supported by the World Bank's CARE Project and subsequent funding, this initiative exemplifies the power of partnership in resilience-building. Key partners, including the University of Salford, the National Building Research Organisation, and the Kalutara District Secretariat, united to drive impactful change.

The partnership created between academia, research institutions, and local government yielded tangible results, advancing resilience and sustainable development in Sri Lanka. This ongoing project has been recognised by the Prime Minister's office in Sri Lanka as a nationally significant project for bringing digital innovation to climate resilience and other sectors.

Examples of the Pilot:

MOBILISE: Equipped stakeholders in the Kalutara District with comprehensive risk assessment tools, empowering informed decision-making and proactive resilience planning. The images below show examples of how the stakeholders used MOBILISE to understand risks on communities and infrastructure.
