D5.4 Second Version of the LINKS Framework: Deliverable 5.4 of LINKS: Strengthening links between technologies and society for European disaster resilience - Research Report

This deliverable (5.4) describes the second version of the LINKS Framework. The Framework provides products for critical stakeholders by combining knowledge and experiences about how social media and crowdsourcing (SMCS) are used in disaster risk management (DRM). It focuses on how the second version can support and guide practitioners in their planning for the uses of SMCS through learning paths. The learning paths revolve around two main themes (engaging with citizens and improving communication) and aim at pointing users towards relevant knowledge delivered from the LINKS products. Additionally, this deliverable outlines the design and rationale behind the second version and the next steps for developing the final version of the LINKS Framework.
