Education

KnowRISK public education programme includes exhibitions and events at museums and communities; schools’ programmes; publications and web information.

The purpose of our public education programme is to:

– raise awareness and education on earthquake and non-structural elements safety for teachers, school children and parents

– raise homeowners’ awareness of the earthquake risks in their region

– show homeowners practical things they can do to make their homes safer and prevent damage if there is an earthquake

– raise community awareness about earthquakes and earthquake protection measures for non-structural elements

– develop and maintain a culture of safety.

 

This reduces the impact of disasters on people’s lives.
