Town Watching in Kha para [Bangladesh]

On July 19, SEEDS Asia conducted a town watching focusing on earthquake with Aeon Buddies, a youth group in Kha para in Ward 17, DNCC. Aeon Buddies was established by motivated volunteers in 2013 and they organize various sports festivals and other events. Kha para has more open spaces as compared to the other areas of the city, however, some of them are not usable because not well maintained. Narrow unpaved roads were other issues identified. The group also pointed out lack of awareness about earthquake and fire among residents in their area and decided to conduct awareness activities including theater and debate competition.
