Hands-On Learning Experience in Disaster Preparedness and First Aid

In December, 31 members of the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) Club from Shramjit Kishor School, Lalitpur, visited the Mitra Disaster Risk Reduction Learning Center (MDRRLC) to gain practical knowledge and skills for responding to disaster situations, with particular focus on challenges faced in Nepal.

During the visit, students learned about natural and human-made disasters, including their causes, impacts, and preventive measures. They also participated in first aid training covering bleeding and fractures, bed sheet stretcher use, emergency tool kits, and the importance of preparing emergency supplies in advance.

The visit involved Shramjit Kishor School and MDRRLC and provided students with practical disaster risk reduction and first aid knowledge. The school and learning center continue to collaborate, with club members expected to share the knowledge gained at their school.
