About the volunteering opportunity
For the “CURA 2026” civil defense drill in Berlin, we are looking for dedicated individuals to participate as extras in a realistic simulation.
Participants will take on the role of people seeking assistance following a widespread power outage. In doing so, they will help volunteer emergency responders practice various disaster response scenarios and procedures as realistically as possible.
The exercise places a special emphasis on the support services. No prior experience is required—what’s most important is motivation, a desire to participate, and a willingness to actively support the volunteer responders.
