• Descrição: This report focuses on the role that schools play in the community, a role that goes beyond just providing a place for teachers and students for a few hourse each day. As community centres for social and cultural activities, sports meetings, etc, it is being increasingly recognised that special attention is needed to build new schools and retrofitting older ones so as to provide maximum protection to school users and physical infrastructure in the event of natural disaster. This publication not only raises the question of protecting schools physically, it underscores the need to introduce natural disaster response training and education.
