Advancing Disaster Preparedness Through Interactive Learning

On June 19, DEPO conducted a one-day earthquake preparedness training for staff members of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) at the JICA Office in Lazimpat.

The training introduced practical, low-cost disaster education tools—including board games, card games, interactive exercises, and disaster drills—to demonstrate how participatory learning can make disaster preparedness more engaging and effective. Through hands-on activities, participants strengthened their understanding of disaster risks and practical preparedness measures. This training is part of the Hello Kitty Hand Wash Program by JICA, where DEPO Nepal is jointly facilitating DRR education activities in schools with JICA.
