NDYS2008 activity theme:

 "Global Warming and disaster prevention"

The earth is affected by the global warming, and various disasters increase more and more in many parts of the world.

It is obvious if we make environment better, we can reduce the damage from disasters.This is what we have learned from the Great Hanshin Awaji earthquake.

NDYS project focused on the "climate change and the disaster" to cope with disasters increasing due to the "global warming".  Students make research on past disasters where they live.

Furthermore, for "the global warming" which was a problem of the earth, NDYS project tackled activity to featured the theme of "global warming and disaster prevention" through "the making of disaster safety map" and making “Kid’s safety bag" based on the investigation through the on-line disaster prevention collaborative learning.

 

We hope you will enjoy watching the disaster prevention education today, which connects the classroom around the world by the Internet and work together through networking.  It is our pleasure if any of our activities will be your reference. Moreover, the discussion forum by children in the world is held on 23rd of March.

  Children who work on this project will make presentations of their activities and have "International panel discussion" through the Internet video- conferencing.
