Regional resilience
We support efforts that help countries and communities move from reactive emergency response toward sustained disaster-risk reduction and long-term resilience.
Latin America and the Caribbean
Strengthening preparedness, coordination, and resilience across Latin America and the Caribbean.
The Global Preparedness Resilience Foundation works with public agencies, civil society, emergency-response institutions, and private-sector partners to strengthen disaster preparedness, regional cooperation, and operational resilience across Latin America and the Caribbean.
Our approach is grounded in practical readiness: stronger institutions, better-prepared societies, improved coordination, and field-capable solutions that help countries and communities reduce risk and respond effectively when emergencies occur.

Who We Are
A regional platform for practical preparedness and resilience.
The Global Preparedness Resilience Foundation was created to support countries and institutions as they work to improve lives through stronger preparedness, more resilient systems, and better coordination in the face of disasters and complex emergencies.
GPRF focuses on the operational realities of Latin America and the Caribbean: multi-hazard environments, uneven institutional capacity, infrastructure vulnerability, communications challenges, and the need for timely coordination between governments, emergency responders, communities, donors, and the private sector.
Regional Focus
Designed for the needs of Latin America and the Caribbean.
GPRF is intentionally focused on Latin America and the Caribbean, where resilience depends on stronger institutions, better preparedness, and practical cooperation across borders and sectors.
Prepared societies
We emphasize readiness at the operational level through exercises, training, shared situational awareness, and practical planning that helps agencies and communities prepare for emergencies before they become crises.
Stronger coordination
We help improve coordination between local and national agencies, regional networks, civil society, critical infrastructure operators, and private partners whose collaboration is essential during disasters.
In Practice
How GPRF supports preparedness, coordination, and resilience in practice.
GPRF’s core capabilities work together in the field. Our support model brings communications and interoperability, incident response, training and exercise, grant and program management, public-private partnership engagement, and ICS instruction into one practical operating framework.
Regional context
Preparedness and resilience support shaped by real operating conditions.
Across Latin America and the Caribbean, countries face recurring disasters, operational complexity, and the need for stronger coordination between public agencies, communities, and private-sector partners. GPRF’s work is grounded in these realities and focused on practical implementation.
We help partners strengthen readiness, improve incident coordination, build interoperable operating environments, and connect training, program delivery, and field support into a coherent resilience effort.
01
Communications and Interoperability
GPRF supports field-to-command coordination, shared situational awareness, emergency communications, and interoperability across agencies, disciplines, and operating environments.
02
Incident Response
We help partners strengthen incident coordination, response planning, operational readiness, and the practical systems needed to support complex emergency operations.
03
Training and Exercise
We design and support classroom instruction, tabletop exercises, functional exercises, field demonstrations, and train-the-trainer programs that help teams practice realistic coordination before a crisis.
04
Grant and Program Management
GPRF supports fundable program design, implementation planning, partner coordination, reporting, and management structures for preparedness and resilience initiatives.
05
Public-Private Partnership Engagement
We help connect public agencies, NGOs, donors, industry, and critical infrastructure operators so that preparedness programs are practical, collaborative, and implementation-ready.
06
ICS Instruction
GPRF provides Incident Command System instruction that helps teams understand command structure, role clarity, operational coordination, and scalable incident-management practices.
Experience
Operationally grounded and regionally connected.
GPRF brings together experience in emergency management, training and exercise design, public safety, technology-enabled response coordination, and international stakeholder engagement.
Our work in South America and our broader regional orientation support a practical model for strengthening preparedness, institutional coordination, and resilience across Latin America and the Caribbean.
