On 17th November, the DRR Awareness Campaign at Central Hindu Boys School which was established in 1898 was organised with the aim to raise awareness on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) with school students, parents, teachers, society members and outreach schools. Dr. S.B. Pandey, a teacher and one of the delegates to Japan Study Visit in 2017 from Varanasi shared his experiences and learnings from Japan as well as the achievements and activities as Climate school in past almost three years. Mr. Arvind Kumar Singh as a representative of the associated climate school also visited Japan as delegation member in 2018 and shared the learnings. Out reach schools also joined the events and SEEDS Asia introduced project video, DRR mobile application “Be-Safe” and DRR Citizen Activity Promotion Centre (DRR-CAP) which is scheduled to open on 20th December 2018 in Varanasi! We truly wish the citizens of Varanasi will continue learn and act to make the city resilient!
