Hey friend
Here is your answer
Because of extreme vulnerability to natural disasters, Nepal is considered a disaster hotspot in the world. For a small country with just a little less than 30-million population, the disaster statistics are always frightening. School students of Nepal are also in extreme risk of natural disasters, especially when they are in schools. In this context, a few education programmes for disaster risk reduction (DRR) have already been initiated and the results have also been already documented. However, an evaluation of the real scenario with the help of an independent research is still lacking. Therefore, this research aims to explore benefits of existing education programmes of DRR in Nepal. Altogether, 124 students from 17 districts were interviewed and various questions related to disaster information, disaster knowledge, disaster readiness, disaster awareness, disaster adaptation, and disaster risk perception were asked. Statistical analysis such as histogram analysis, distribution analysis, bivariate correlations, and independent sample t-tests were conducted to examine the relationship between students in disaster education-related programmes and the key DRR issues-related dependent variables. Findings of this independent research confirmed that initiatives taken for disaster education in Nepal are not enough and a major challenge for DRR in a school community for a country like Nepal is implementing methods, especially at the individual level. Likewise, the disaster education should not only be confined within the school students, but it must also be promoted to families and communities, which is very essential to elaborate knowledge of DRR and to contribute to a disaster safe society in the country.
In our India we should also implement this.
