Brief
one-sentence description
of project:
This
is a project in which
children will learn the
importance of human lives
and how to cope with
natural disasters such as
earthquakes, volcanic
eruptions, wildfires,
floods, hurricanes,
landslides, tsunamis,
droughts and so on through
the communication and
collaboration with global
friends. Children can make
a difference in the world.
This year’s theme:
Climate Change and
Disaster Reduction
Slogan: Communication
saves lives!
Our
goal :
Build
the safer place to live in
for everyone in this
planet
3. Full description of project:
| NDYS
was first organized
in Hyogo in May 2004
and started from
September 2004,
commemorating 10th
year of great
Hanshin Awaji
Earthquake,
Japan
.
We learned the
importance of human
lives and
preparedness for
disasters. Now, due
to the Climate
Change, the ravages
from disasters
become greater than
before. By
experiencing the
various disasters,
different knowledge
and information to
reduce the impact of
disasters are
accumulated in local
communities. By
sharing those
knowledge and
information, we can
prepare against
future disasters and
take actions to stop
the climate change
which is one of the
causes of greater
disasters. Let us
keep continuous
efforts and transfer
the efforts to the
next generation. Our
ultimate goal is to
enhance awareness of
natural disasters to
families, schools
and local
communities around
the world through
young people's
actions.
NDYS
will build a global
disaster management
education network
utilizing
Information and
Communications
Technology (ICT).
Let us communicate
each other and
contribute to the
healthier planet.
Programs
NDYS has four
programs. However,
you need not to do
all programs. You
can select one or
more programs.
1)
“Global Disaster
Safety Map”
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, where
is dangerous and
where they love and
be proud of. Send
the photo of
completed disaster
safety map to ndys@jearn.jp.
The map will be
uploaded to
‘CoSMOS’
(Collaborative
Safety Maps on Open
System) for
presentation and
further discussion.
You may put your map
on the Gallery of
iEARN
Collaboration
Center
, too. Students will
have discussion
through
Video-conferencing
and on the iEARN
forum

2)
NDYS Teddy Bear Exchange
and Kid’s Safety
Bag
As a subsidiary program,
the NDYS Teddy Bears (NDYS
Little Ambassadors) will
be exchanged between
partner schools to
strengthen the friendly
bond at the NDYS
conference. Each School
can make Kid’s Safety
Bag (Emergency bag),
too.
3)
Discussion on the iEARN
NDYS forum
Theme: 'My experience of a
natural disaster'
Students who want to tell
their experiences of
natural disasters can put
your message on the NDYS
forum.
As the final event of the
project, we will have a
video conference. Through
this program, students
will grow as global
citizens who take actions
and share their knowledge
of disaster management to
local people. We expect
students to be NDYS
Ambassadors to let people
understand the importance
of preparedness for the
next risk. Their schools
will be the center of
community education for
disaster management. We
welcome teachers and civic
volunteers to support
students' learning and
activities.
