The Natural Disaster Youth Summit (NDYS) is a year round 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. Students will acquire the knowledge of systems of disasters and skills to reduce the future disasters. Children can make a difference in the world.  

This year’s theme:     Climate Change  and Disaster Reduction

Slogan:      Communication saves lives!   

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

The annual face-to-face Natural Disaster Youth Summit was first organized in Hyogo in May 2004 and started from September 2004, commemorating 10th anniversary of great Hanshin Awaji Earthquake, Japan.
