In this podcast, Ricardo discusses the severe flooding crisis in Southern Brazil, emphasizing three key points. First, focus on immediate rescue and safety, not on blame. Authorities should prioritize evacuating people, providing basic needs, and ensuring shelters. Second, protect the vulnerable, such as women and children, from potential abuse in chaotic environments by maintaining security and organizing safe shelters. Third, post-crisis, sustained attention is crucial for rebuilding and preventing future disasters. Despite potential distractions from new crises, continuous efforts are necessary to ensure long-term recovery and implement preventive measures to avoid recurrence.
