The role and options of nongovernmental nonprofit organizations in dealing with crisis situations and a system of cooperation between these organizations and emergency management.
NĚMEC, Petr
I chose the topic of my diploma thesis ?Role and Compass and Potential of Non-government Non-profit Organisations when Solving Crisis Situations and System of Co-operation between them and Bodies of Crisis Management? because I believe that non-profit organisations play a key role at providing help to people in distress. I pay high attention to the non-profit organisations which, within their compass, try to help people in distress. They attempt to mitigate the consequences of emergencies or crisis situations, which can affect any human being at any time. It was only when I started studying at the University of South Bohemia and when working for the police that I found out that the non-profit organisations which operate in the Czech Republic depend mainly on the grant policy, sponsorship and human approach of the people who are employed in these organisations or support them in whatever way. Having chosen the topic of my diploma thesis, I have tried to summarize and submit as much information for the readers of this paper to absorb as many data as possible on the non-profit organisations which work within the South-Bohemian region and are available when preparing and solving emergencies and crisis situations. I have made an attempt to describe their role, compass and employment at emergencies. The other objective of my thesis is to describe their communication within the Emergency Services and with the bodies of Crisis Management. The objective of my diploma thesis is to analyse the activities of non-government non-profit organisations when dealing with crisis situations and emergencies. Based on qualitative research, this goal was met. Nowadays, in the time of economic crises both in the Czech Republic and in the world, I must state that to secure funding, material and human resources, which would enable their workers to perform the activities given by their mission, represents for the non-profit organisations a superhuman task. The hypothesis that the system of co-operation of the bodies of Crisis Management and non-profit organisations is sufficient has been confirmed. The hypothesis that the activities of non-profit organisations when dealing with crisis situations and emergencies represent an important factor has been confirmed as well.
