Communities in Argentina and Chile have initiated emergency response drills to enhance disaster preparedness and coordination. In El Rodeo, Argentina, authorities organized a simulation involving police, firefighters, and health services to test real-time responses to scenarios such as traffic accidents and medical emergencies. In Chile, the Walterio Meyer Rusca Rural School conducted an earthquake drill as part of its Integral School Safety Plan (PISE), focusing on evacuation protocols and safety procedures for students and staff. In the Jujuy province of Argentina, the provincial government expanded seismic preparedness by organizing simultaneous evacuation drills across 15 educational institutions, including locations in Alto Comedero and Capital. These exercises were designed to test earthquake alarms, evacuation times, and the response of students and staff. Additionally, in Ushuaia, the municipality coordinated with volunteer firefighters to provide training for official vehicle drivers, focusing on preventive inspections, safety kit usage, and fire extinguisher operation. Other local initiatives include road safety workshops for students in San Martín and police-led safety training for hikers.
