Post-Disaster Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment

The Post-Disaster Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment (PDRDNA) toolset allows for the reporting of school-focused damage, casualty and needs data immediately after a disaster by the school disaster focal point(s) identified in advance of a crisis event. The PDRDNA portal dashboard and automated school damage and needs assessment reports permit the education authorities to make data-driven and location-specific response decisions in reference to declared disaster(s) being monitored.


Schools register in advance and dowload the tool onto personal mobile devices. After a disaster, school-based data collection focuses on damages, casualties, and post-disaster needs. Local authorities check the data through a validation protocal. Algorithms working behind the scenes to allow immediate analysis of the incoming data and provide quick snapshots of the post-disaster situation to aid response and planning.

Frequently asked questions

What is Risk RED's approach to school safety?

As a U.S.-based NGO, we champion children's right to safer schools worldwide. Our work focuses on hazard-prone regions, ensuring that children's rights to safety, survival, and education are protected. We develop tools that help communities build their capacity to safeguard these fundamental rights.

How do education authorities benefit from these apps?

Education authorities can access a comprehensive database to review and analyze crowd-sourced results. This helps them understand community perceptions, visualize safety assessments, and plan targeted interventions. The data collected through our apps provides valuable insights for improving school safety measures.

What's the difference between the two school safety apps?

Our first app is designed for public awareness and introduces users to school safety concepts. The second app is a specialized tool for school assessors to conduct in-depth, non-technical safety evaluations and identify facilities that may need thorough assessment. Both apps are part of our Comprehensive School Safety Assessment Suite.
