Please see Registration Form of "Natural Disaster Youth Summit 2010 in Turkiye ".

This INVITATION is here.

Our goal :is to build the safer place to live in for everyone in this planet.

3. Full description of project:

NDYS was organized in Hyogo in May 2004 and started its program from September 2004, commemorating 10th anniversary of great Hanshin Awaji Earthquake, Japan.

Natural Disasters may occur anywhere and anytime on this planet. We learned the importance of human lives and preparedness for disasters. This is what we have learned through NDYS 2005 to 2009.

You have various information to reduce the impact of disasters, share your information with other members
in the world. It will take years to build disaster resilient world, so let’s start now! Now is the time to take ACTIONS! So, start your continuous efforts from now until you grow up, then transfer your efforts to next generation.
With more communication, more human lives can be saved.

Our ultimate goal is to enhance awareness of natural disasters to families, schools and local communities around the world and build the safer place to live in for everyone on this planet.

To achieve this goal, we plan two programs.

● Programs

1) "Global Disaster Safety Map (GDSM)" program

Students will create a Disaster Safety Map of their school’s surrounding areas. Students research on their environment near their school and put information in the map such as where is safe and where is dangerous where they love and be proud of.

Please take a photo of the disaster safety map after you completed it and put it on the iEARN forum. We discuss about your disaster safety map on the iEARN forum or through video-conferencing.

If all the maps are put on the forum, we have a global disaster safety map that bring the whole world together.

'Global Disaster Safety Map (GDSM)" program

2) "NDYS Little Ambassadors" program

As a subsidiary program, the NDYS Teddy Bears (NDYS Little Ambassadors) with Kid’s Safety Bag will be exchanged between partner schools to strengthen the friendly bond. In the Kid’s safety Bag (Emergency bag) , you can put your school information and Things which you need in danger. The process of considering what you need in time of natural disaster will foster your power to save your lives.

'NDYS Little Ambassadors' program

●Discussion

Theme: Disaster Reduction and Climate Change

Thus, the contents of what students learned at the youth summit will be disseminated to the local community where students live. Through this program, we expect students to grow as NDYS Ambassadors who share their information of disaster management and tell people the importance of preparedness for the next risk.

Their schools will be the center of community education for disaster management. We also expect teachers and civic volunteers to support students' with learning and activities.

As the final event of the project, we will get together in Türkiye, and hold the International Conference 'NDYS 2010 in Turkiye’.

“Communication saves lives!”
