Twente University Students Explore DRR Gaming Innovations at MDRRLC

In March 2025, the Mitra Disaster Risk Reduction Learning Center (MDRRLC) hosted an exchange with Mr. Luc Meulenbroek and Mr. Garbhit Naik, students from Twente University in the Netherlands. Their visit focused on exploring the use of games as tools for disaster awareness and sharing developments in disaster education.

During the exchange, MDRRLC presented its interactive DRR games, while the Twente University students shared flood-risk awareness games they were developing. The discussion covered gamification, public preparedness, flood simulation, risk communication, and approaches for making disaster learning more engaging.

The exchange brought together MDRRLC and Twente University students for cross-cultural knowledge sharing on game-based disaster education. The discussion also provided an opportunity to exchange technical ideas and explore potential areas for future collaboration.
