Strengthening Mosque Resilience: Birmingham Chapter event at Aston University
Last week, Faith Associates hosted a Mosque resilience event at Aston University with Mosque leaders, volunteers, and security officers gathered for an insightful and timely event focused on building resilience against crises such as riots, floods, and civil disobedience.
Delivered by experts in emergency response and resilience planning, the event provided crucial strategies for safeguarding mosques and communities during unexpected situations.
The session covered a range of topics, including:
– Understanding Threats: Experts highlighted real-world scenarios where mosques have faced disruptions and shared lessons learned from past incidents.
– Crisis Preparedness: Attendees were guided through effective emergency planning, including risk assessment, evacuation protocols, and crisis communication strategies.
– Security Measures: Practical advice was given on fortifying mosque security, training volunteers, and ensuring swift responses to potential threats.
– Community Engagement: Speakers emphasized the role of community cohesion in resilience, encouraging proactive dialogue and cooperation with local authorities.
One of the event’s key takeaways was the importance of a unified response strategy. Experts stressed the need for Mosque leadership to collaborate with emergency services, legal advisors, and neighbouring communities to enhance security and preparedness.
