Introduction: Over the past 20 years, there has been a global increase in health and humanitarian crises, conflicts, catastrophic events, and disasters, caused by multiple risk factors and increasing vulnerabilities, which are making our planet vulnerable, hence the need to widely inform and share the culture of risk reduction on these issues, using web information and communication technologies and strategies. Methods: Planet emergency disaster med net was created as the first Italian web site platform for national and international sharing information on Disaster Medicine, Catastrophes, Conflicts and Humanitarian Crises to increase the knowledge of professionals and those who want to approach these issues from a perspective of “disaster risk reduction” and to foster an integrated view of the current crises of the planet and possible solutions. The guiding principles will be based on the concepts of Global Health and One Health. Results: The goal of this project is to provide real-time information on planetary emergencies, disasters, conflicts, and humanitarian crises. The platform’s inspiring principles are based on the concept of One Health, an integrated and unifying holistic approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize human, animal, and ecosystem health, recognizing that the health of humans, animals (both domestic and wild), and ecosystems is inextricably linked, interdependent, and interconnected. Expected results will be to promote an integrated view of current crises on the Planet and possible solutions from a health and information perspective, following a global health approach, to improve resilience and promote disaster risk reduction. Conclusion: Using communication, information technology, and new technologies, including artificial intelligence, as tools to increase capacity and skills in disaster risk reduction, to improve disaster resilience, and also encouraging new ways of strong cooperation and interaction through the promotion of a transnational collaborative network in disaster medicine.
