Emergency Preparedness Knowledge at MDRRLC

Bhassara Secondary School organized a visit to the Mitra Disaster Risk Reduction Learning Center (MDRRLC) for parents of its kindergarten students. The visit aimed to raise awareness about household emergency preparedness, with a particular focus on the importance of preparing an emergency bag.

During the session, parents learned why an emergency bag is necessary, what items it should contain, and the purpose of each item. They also visited the center’s orientation and history rooms to learn more about disaster risk reduction and disaster-related experiences.

The visit encouraged parents to consider emergency preparedness at home, and some participants agreed to keep emergency bags in their households. The activity highlighted the role of families in strengthening disaster preparedness and promoting safety at home.
