Earthquake risk management workshop

An earthquake is an unpredictable natural disaster. However, seismologists can estimate where earthquakes are likely to strike by calculating probabilities and forecasts. Scientists can obtain additional information by digging trenches to examine the geological record of seismic rupture in ancient history.

Earthquakes, which are often followed by tsunamis if the epicenter is on the sea floor, cause massive destruction and loss of life. This loss can be partially reduced by creating awareness among the people of mitigation techniques and risk management measures.

The five-day Training of Trainers Program on Earthquake Risk Management: A Community Based Approach was inaugurated today at the Auditorium of the National Council for Educational Research and Training (NCERT), New Delhi. This was jointly organized by Vigyan Prasar, an independent organization under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India and the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM), Ministry of Home Affairs.

The training is expected to reveal paths to more advanced training for urban preparedness along with emergency response to earthquakes and other similar disasters.

During the opening session, Dr. A. a. Khan of NIDM presented the basic concepts of earthquake risk mitigation while interacting with the participants. Experts from various fields will discuss relevant issues such as earthquake early warning systems, fire safety and mitigation, community response, psychological challenges and disaster preparedness, structural and non-structural mitigation measures, earthquake safe schools, etc.

A team of experts from NDRF will organize a session on first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation after an earthquake to educate the public on preventive measures. An important issue that is often overlooked during a disaster is Communication and Disaster Risk Management. A session on this topic is planned so that people understand the importance of maintaining effective communication and avoiding creating panic or rumours. The workshop will end on November 18th.
