On school trips, organized children's holiday trips, confirmation weekends, and scout camps, various incidents can occur: accidents, outbreaks of illness, natural disasters, and sexual violence. In schools as well as in youth work, those in charge may suddenly face emergencies. Often, such emergencies are due to force majeure and are unpredictable; sometimes they also result from deficiencies in preparation. What they all have in common is that they are often dealt with in an unstructured manner. Bernd Lenkeit and Vinzenz Heidrich demonstrate through numerous practical examples how fear-free, efficient emergency management can be achieved and how legal guidelines can be implemented in the reality of volunteer-led work. Implementable models for emergency management are presented for organizations with different structures.
