Business Preparedness Initiative (BPI) Resource Guide

The purpose of BPI is to save lives, protect livelihoods, and shorten recovery times following disasters. It does this by providing small and medium businesses with adaptable preparedness tools.

This guide is for Red Cross and Red Crescent National Societies and other organizations, associations, and networks (e.g. Chamber of Commerce). The guide has been designed to support these groups to develop their own program of activity; it contains links to available resources, as well as ideas and suggestions for costomizing the tools at a level that suits the resources available and the needs of local business communities.

Visit the BPI Toolkit for complete guidance and how to use these resources.
