The IPN Life-O.N.E. program will help them to design and construct inexpensive, disaster resistant structures fabricated (in many cases) from locally available waste materials,   build and operate water purification and/or filtration plants, small renewable energy power stations, emergency response teams (emergency call boxes), and emergency communications and transportation systems.     These technological mechanisms can help to dramatically diminish the impact of natural disasters on impoverished communities in developing nations.

The IPN utilizes a protocol called Improvisational Adaptation, the most comprehensive emergency preparedness/self-reliance program ever developed.  It will offer people around the world a system that will allow them to maintain their safety during all types of natural, technological, environmental, biological and civil disasters.

IA offers dynamic and flexible, survival methods that enable you to avoid, mitigate against, respond to and recover from practically any type of disaster.    The IPN created a formula to express it:

"Preventative measures that are taken for each crisis are directly proportional to their frequency P= and inversely proportional to their average magnitude".

P = Preventative measures, F =frequency, M =average magnitude.   Analytically stated, P= F/M. The IPN Executive Director Aton Edwards modeled the IA program from the most efficient organic mechanisms ever created, the animal (human) cell and the human body.   A cell is designed to function as a self-contained unit that employs internal mechanisms such as the mitochondrion to provide it with energy (ATP) and the cell membrane for protection.  

Like a human (animal) cell, IA practitioners become self-contained, individual units designed for autonomous function.   And, in the same way the internal organs of the human body work together to maintain homeostasis; they utilize methods, tools and skills that enable the regulation and maintenance of stability within their living environments during disasters.
