Child-led disaster risk reduction: a practical guide

Date of publication

2007

Institution

save the Children International

Target

Adults

This guide outlines the steps taken in Asia to replicate a successful child-led disaster risk reduction (CLDRR) program, which was initially trialed in Cuba

Disaster risk reduction (DRR) involves reducing vulnerability to disasters and being prepared when they occur. To achieve maximum impact, DRR should be integrated at the national, provincial, and community levels

Implementing CLDRR means that fewer lives will be lost in the event of a disaster, children will be more resilient, and the negative impact of the disaster on survivors can be significantly reduced. Participation in CLDRR has been shown to promote children's mental and emotional recovery after disasters.
