the certification of disaster prevention volunteer, and the total number of disaster prevention instructors
(including basic instructors and seed Instructors) has reached 788, and a database of instructors has been
established by courses. 126 resilience communities were counseled for implementation, and on-site visits
were conducted. By enhancing public awareness of disaster prevention and community resilience, the goal

of self-help and mutual assistance is achieved.

The "Resilient Taiwan Large-scale Wind and Earthquake Disaster Preparation and Collaboration Plan
(Draft)" planned and proposed in 2022 is expected to be executed from 2023 to 2027 with a budget of
about NT$ 970 million. The disaster prevention volunteer system and resilient community system are es-

tablished by combining the three cores of "Large-scale Disaster Preparation", "Cross-regional Support
and Cooperation", and "Public-Private Cooperation" with the "Disaster Prevention and Rescue Deep
Ploughing Plan Phase 3" so as to continue to improve operations. Civil disaster prevention and relief capa-
bilities are incorporated to gradually establish a public-private cooperation mechanism. At the same time,

large-scale disaster preparation is strengthened to continue to deepen the local government's disaster
prevention and rescue capabilities, and the public's awareness and communication of disaster risks are also
strengthened.

To enhance local governments and central ministries and commissions' ability to deliver disas-

April and October 2021, it has targeted ministries and commissions of the central government,
municipal and county/city governments, township/town/city/district offices, and the NFA emer-
gency response teams to hold regular drills. To become more familiarized with the systems, local
governments and the NFA emergency response teams have filed conditions of simulated disasters

uploading exercise and the evacuation and sheltering system operation exercise were additionally
performed in May to strengthen the response performance.
