Country pages

The guide is deliberately generic: it works in any country. These country pages provide the local layer — emergency numbers, national disaster management agency, alert systems, national equivalents of the systems cited in the guide.

One page per country, in the country's language

Each country page is written and maintained in the main language(s) of the country concerned: the language of those who will be on the ground. Pages for other countries are accessible below in their original language.
