2 > A simulation activity designed to show young people how the Red Cross responds to emergencies. > There are two versions of the activity, using different scenarios. You can choose from either a disaster zone or war zone. What is Operation Amphibian?

3 The key issues in both scenarios > Displaced people, driven from their homes, live under constant threat from landmines and snipers (war zone) or terrible flooding (disaster zone). Many children have been separated from their families. > There is a chronic shortage of food and clean water, and a risk of serious disease from lack of hygiene.

4 The aim of the activity > Participants take roles as members of the Red Cross from around the world. They have to work together to respond to the needs of displaced people. They are led by a local member of the Red Cross from the affected country. > The key needs are shelter and clean running water. They also need to reunite separated families.

This includes learning about landmines for the war zone scenario, or understanding people’s needs and wants during a disaster. 2You will learn first aid and apply what you’ve learned. 3You will consider your surroundings and environment and map the area you’ve fled to.
