Give me five importance of DRRR in our family and community

Sagot :

Answer:

1. Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) education is crucial for all communities living in disaster prone areas. The Asia Pacific Region is the most disaster prone region in the world, facing numerous hazards, from severe flooding to storms to volcanic eruptions to tsunamis and earthquakes. In Indonesia, where Project Child operates, 231 million people, or 91% of the population are exposed to natural hazards. According to Verisk Maplecroft, a UK-based Risk Management company, this places Indonesia third in the world for the number of people at risk of natural disasters, after India (1) and China (2).

2. While education is crucial to reduce the risks faced by communities, approaches to disaster management have traditionally focused on top down and technology driven strategies. This trend is, however, changing. Increasing numbers of NGO’s, international organizations and national governments are acknowledging, advocating for, and actively engaging in the important work of disaster mitigation education. High profile NGO’s and international organizations undertaking such work include Save the Children, UNICEF, UNISDR, and World Vision. Project Child has also received tremendous support from the communities where we operate and we are continuing to expand our programs and schools to reach new communities.

3. Education can have a catalytic effect to strengthen communities and reduce vulnerability. This was acknowledged, by governments throughout world, in the Sendai Framework, which calls for “a culture of prevention and education on disaster risk.” Awareness is one component of this education, however, disaster risk reduction is at its most effective and valuable when it empowers individuals and communities to become important actors in disaster reduction strategies. Education is the key to this empowerment.

4. Adopted in 2010, The Asia Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (AMCDRR) Declaration recognized “the need to protect women, children and other vulnerable groups from the disproportionate impacts of disaster and to empower them to promote resiliency within their communities and workplaces.” It also called for the promotion of child and people-centered education to strengthen community preparedness and reduce vulnerability to risk.

5. Children are the most vulnerable to consequences and effects of disasters. According to UNICEF, 50-60% of the 102 million people directly affected by natural disasters in 2014 were children, while Save the Children estimates that around 200 million children per year, in the Asia Pacific region alone, will have their lives severely disrupted by various disasters.
