The Disaster Education Promotion Office (DEPO) is a non-profit organization established in 2022 committed to strengthening disaster resilience through capacity building of educators, local officials, and organizations who help reach out to the schools and communities with creative educational tools and actives. Through localized education, capacity building, and community engagement, DEPO capacitates individuals and institutions to utilize educational tools and programs enabling awareness raising on disaster prevention.

The concept is derived from Japan’s ‘self-help’ and ‘mutual-help’ principles and are being applied using creative tools and programs developed by NPO Plus Arts which are localized for Nepal. NPO Plus Arts is a Japan based specialized organization for disaster education.
