Various disasters either man made or natural have necessitated people around the world to adopt ad-hoc practices in managing or mitigating the aftermath of the disaster.

This paper proposes a mechanism integrating a mobile app with other IoT devices, using which the public can participate in issuing a broadcast alert in their locality.
