Community and School Disaster Readiness Assessments for the Paschim Disaster Preparedness Project, Nepal

Scott Wilson Nepal in association with Green Analytics is leading community and school disaster readiness assessments in Doti and Baitadi for the Paschim Disaster Preparedness Project – a project implemented by the Nepal Red Cross Society (NRCS) in partnership with American Red Cross (AmRC) and local governments. 

Over the next month, we will assess the preparedness levels of communities and schools in the areas of self-organization, ability to take action, knowledge, and awareness, and connectivity. The findings should help local governments better prepare for disasters.
