प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है अवलोकन

प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है is an online digital simulation designed for humanitarian health practitioners. In प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है, you take the role of a Health Program Manager leading the health response for a medium-sized, international NGO named READY. The NGO operates in Thisland, a fictitious, low-income country that has experienced recent civil conflict, mass displacement, and an influenza epidemic. The simulation is divided into three chapters that follow an evolving outbreak from the first detection to its spread throughout the population. As Health Program Manager, you will identify, assess, and interpret sources of data to plan and implement an integrated outbreak response that prioritizes communication and community engagement, protection principles, and staff safety and well-being.

IMPORTANT!

प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है builds upon but is independent from प्रकोप तैयार!, READY’s first digital outbreak simulation, in which the learner takes the role of a Team Lead during the aforementioned influenza epidemic. While प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है takes place after the events of प्रकोप तैयार!, it is not necessary to play प्रकोप तैयार! before playing प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है.

The simulation is designed for national and international NGOs responding to humanitarian emergencies, particularly targeting NGO health staff, including health program managers and coordinators, RCCE focal points, and community health workers.

प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है provides learners an opportunity to test and apply the following skills:

  1. नैदानिक और सार्वजनिक स्वास्थ्य प्रतिक्रिया के लिए एप्लाइड महामारी विज्ञान: बढ़ते संक्रामक रोग के प्रकोप के लिए डेटा-संचालित स्वास्थ्य प्रतिक्रिया को लागू करना और समन्वयित करना।
  2. प्रभावी संचार और सामुदायिक जुड़ाव: Developing and implementing a Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) strategy using a data-driven approach.
  3. Humanitarian Leadership: प्रकोप प्रतिक्रिया के दौरान संकट-प्रभावित लोगों, कर्मचारियों और भागीदारों के लिए जोखिम और कमजोरियों को कम करना।

  • In December 2023, प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है won the bronze EdTech Excellence Award (category: “Best E-learning, Blended, Flipped Classroom Solution or Remote Solution”) from the Brandon Hall Group, which recognizes innovative and cutting-edge trailblazers in education technology.
  • In June 2024, प्रकोप के लिए तैयार 2!: यह देश संकट में है was nominated for the Best in Learning award at the 2024 Games for Change Festival, which honors the games industry’s capacity for innovation, creativity, and social impact leadership in critical areas related to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.

Troubleshooting and Support

We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble opening the simulation. Please check the following:

  • Do you have the right URL? Make sure you are using www.outbreakready-thislandincrisis.com.
  • For optimal use of the simulation, use Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, or Safari. Please ensure your browser version is up-to-date. Close any additional tabs or windows so that only the browser window with the simulation is open.
  • If you have done the above and it is still not working, try opening the simulation in an “incognito” or “private” window. This is done differently depending on your computer type and browser, but a simple internet search (e.g., “how to open incognito window in Firefox”) can quickly provide instructions on how to do this.

The simulation is meant to be played using a laptop, desktop, or large tablet. The interface does not support playing on smaller mobile devices.

Yes, an internet connection is required throughout the entire simulation and was developed for low-bandwidth settings.

Yes, progress is saved throughout play. If you lose internet connection or choose to exit the browser window during a session, your progress will be saved at the end of each week.  

There is a recommended minimum bandwidth for optimal use of the game. Please find additional details below regarding the optimal bandwidth:

  • The simulation takes approximately 1 minute to load on 10mbps (megabits per second). 
  • The minimum bandwidth required to stream the videos is 1.7mbps.
