Both municipal safety coordinators and voluntary groups can benefit from the building of long-term connections instead of merely assuming that the crisis situation itself will somehow automatically induce the emergence of collaborative efforts. A lesson learned from the research done for the PEP project (Johansson & Linnell 2012, Linnell et al. 2013) is that collaborative efforts are centred all too often on specific issues, and consequently restricted in terms of time. Thus a long-term perspective should preferably be taken to collaboration, which should be subject to a greater degree of formalization. As stated above, a useful way of keeping the actors connected and updated would be through the increased and well considered use of appropriate social media and other ICT tools. Several positive examples are provided in Lindquist et al. (2013). Further, it is important to involve children and young people in volunteer crisis management to ensure continuous relations between the municipality and the public. | Both municipal safety coordinators and voluntary groups can benefit from the building of long-term connections instead of merely assuming that the crisis situation itself will somehow automatically induce the emergence of collaborative efforts.

Guidelines to show Insistency
Both municipal safety coordinators and voluntary groups can benefit from the building of long-term connections instead of merely assuming that the crisis situation itself will somehow automatically induce the emergence of collaborative efforts. A lesson learned from the research done for the PEP project (Johansson & Linnell 2012, Linnell et al. 2013) is that collaborative efforts are centred all too often on specific issues, and consequently restricted in terms of time. Thus a long-term perspective should preferably be taken to collaboration, which should be subject to a greater degree of formalization. As stated above, a useful way of keeping the actors connected and updated would be through the increased and well considered use of appropriate social media and other ICT tools. Several positive examples are provided in Lindquist et al. (2013). Further, it is important to involve children and young people in volunteer crisis management to ensure continuous relations between the municipality and the public.
