Online game to teach children how to face disasters
As part of its current global campaign on education called "Disaster risk reduction starts at school", the secretariat of the UN International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR) launched yesterday an online game aimed at teaching children how to build safer villages and cities against disasters. "Education is essential for reducing children risks to disasters," says Salvano Briceno, director of the UNISDR secretariat in Geneva. "Children are the future mayors, architects, builders, schoolteachers and citizens of tomorrow. If we teach them about disaster risk reduction from an early age, they will understand why it is vital to build houses, schools and hospitals in safe locations, to have early warning systems in place and reduce disasters." Children will learn how the location and construction materials can make a difference when disaster strikes and how early warning systems, evacuation plans and education can save lives and livelihoods.
