Disaster Education Promotion Office (DEPO)

Students from Shree Ganesh School and Aajad School, both located in Changunarayan Municipality, visited the Mitra Disaster Risk Reduction Learning Center (MDRRLC) to learn about Nepal’s disaster history and develop practical disaster preparedness skills. The visit aimed to strengthen students’ understanding of disasters, their impacts, and ways to reduce associated risks.

During the visit, students explored the history of disasters in Nepal and learned about their causes, effects, and preventive measures. They also participated in hands-on activities and simulations to apply their knowledge of disaster preparedness. In addition, the students sang a song promoting environmental protection and expressed their appreciation to the Learning Center for the learning opportunity.

Inspired by the visit, students expressed interest in establishing Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) Clubs in their schools and sharing their knowledge with their peers. The visit encouraged student participation in disaster preparedness and environmental awareness, while the schools and MDRRLC expressed interest in continuing their collaboration to promote safer and more resilient communities.
