DRR Debate Competition [Bangladesh]

DRR model communities in Dhaka are implementing their activity plan that they made after DRR leader training. On January 7, youth club in Kha Para area in Ward 17 organized a debate competition with a theme, “Its Govt.’s sole responsibility to solve problems of Khan Para”. Problems such as Water-logging, waste management, fire incident, road construction, etc. were pointed out and participants actively debated from DRR point of view. Ward councilor and many community people attended. Though it was their first time to organize an event like this, the youth group made it happen with a big success, which helped them gain more recognition within the community and confidence in themselves.
