B-prepared Showcased at the EIB Summer School Alumni Gathering

...

This year’s EIB Summer School Alumni reunion brought together 80 former students in Luxembourg for a two-day deep dive into one central theme: disaster resilience. Attila Lengyel from EduGamiTech recalls how the event went.

Interactive Presentation – Optimism After the Risks

The main event took place on Saturday afternoon, featuring a keynote by Edina Csányi on today’s global risks — from climate change and economic instability to geopolitical challenges — followed by four interactive stations. One of these was dedicated to our project, B-prepared, which promotes disaster readiness through innovative digital tools.

Each of the four 20-member groups rotated through our station for a focused 20-minute experience designed to demonstrate the project’s mission, encourage hands-on participation and showcase how technology can make disaster preparedness engaging and accessible.

Smart Setup with QR Codes, Games and Augmented Reality

The presentation space was carefully optimized for time and interactivity:

  • Large QR-coded posters guided participants to register on Disastropedia.com and download the IM-prepared mobile app.

  • A central table displayed mini-game QR codes, inviting guests to test the app’s interactive challenges on the spot.

  • The AR CPR game was projected on a large screen, allowing everyone to watch the virtual “rescue” unfold in real time.

  • Meanwhile, the B-prepared presentation and VR-prepared demo videos illustrated how immersive simulations can support real-world disaster training.

Throughout each session, participants were encouraged to register, explore and engage — with one volunteer in every group stepping up to try the AR CPR experience live, to the enthusiastic cheers of their peers.

Positive Feedback and Takeaways

According to the organizers, participants’ feedback was overwhelmingly positive. After a day filled with rather alarming discussions about global risks, the B-prepared session stood out for its optimistic and solution-oriented approach. The project offered a refreshing perspective: preparedness can be empowering, educational and even fun.

 

B-prepared’s mission remains clear — to make disaster preparedness accessible to everyone through innovation, community and hands-on learning.
