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.
●Discussion
on ‘What Youth can do to prevent the next disasters
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 were got together in
Taiwan, and hold the International Conference ‘ NDYS 2009
in Taiwan’.
