Disaster Safety Education

 
The project supports the National Institute of Education and the Ministry of Education in order to foster disaster preparedness, prevention and mitigation among school children and youths through disaster safety education and practice. Topics related to Disaster Safety such as natural hazards and climate change are being introduced to school education.
On the one hand, pre- and in-service teacher training is being enhanced through curriculum development as well as training of teacher trainers and lecturers. On the other hand, the introduction of modules for school projects and related learning and teaching materials directly supports the ongoing teaching work at secondary school level.
The project works with 200 pilot schools throughout the country. In the first phase, the project has already produced and provided a vast array of print materials. Currently, a DVD on Disaster Safety, including teaching material as well as a self-learn student’s section is being produced.
 
Providing pupils with adapted teaching material is one of the project's goals.
