  24. Key Achievements Objective : Increased public awareness and knowledge on tsunami risk and disaster risk reduction towards an enhanced culture of safety Achievements: • IEC Material on DRR and School Safety to be developed at school and community level in local language (Orissa, India) • Material on Disaster Management, solid waste, home kitchen gardens at a coastal bio shields to be developed (Maldives) • Film on Disaster Risk Reduction (ADRRN IPT) • Training modules on DRR for field practitioners (Kyoto University, University of Madras, Peradeniya University, ITB Indonesia) • Disaster Risk Reduction for capacity building of NGOs (Indonesia) • Advocacy workshop for integrating disaster management in education pedagogy (Indonesia) • Awareness training, creation of task Forces and Mock Drills to be conducted in schools situated along 5 km coastal belt of Orissa

  25. Key Achievements (Cont’d) Objective : Strengthened disaster risk reduction (preparedness, mitigation and response) capacities of local communities Achievements: • Risk Assessment of 5km coastal belt of Orissa, India • Risk assessment and Base Line Studies of seven selected villages in two different districts of Sri Lanka and in Shaviyani Atoll (Maldives) • Disaster Management Plans developed at school and community level. (Orissa, India) • Disaster management plans developed for seven selected villages in two districts of (Sri Lanka) • Project Selamat Tool Kit for field practitioners • Community task forces trained and Mock Drill exercised carried out (India) • Community trainings on coastal protection measures & home kitchen gardens (Maldives) • Structural Mitigation (retrofitting) and Non Structural Mitigation in 3 model schools (India) • Hospital Disaster Prevention Plans .

  26. Lessons Learned • Networking approach to building resilience creates local sustainability. Result has been more than the sum of activities. • Local level awareness and knowledge of risk is low. Even though well developed indigenous knowledge exists. Risk Assessments and further research needed. • Sustainability and mainstreaming requires long term programming • Extensive weather related disasters are already affecting local Communities • Most post-disaster ‘DRR’ initiatives are preparedness oriented. Concept of DRR is yet to be fully understood.

  27. How the outcomes will be sustained… • Organizations facilitating work in the project areas have developed long term system of engagement with local communities. • New projects are already in place to sustain and upscale initiatives in this project • Extensive documentation, DRR Tool Box to invite other stakeholders to replicate successes.

  28. Future plans • Develop plans for continuing Climate Change Adaptation work with local communities. • Widen stakeholder engagement both locally and nationally • To share and replicate outcomes of the project along other vulnerable coastal communities in Asia fulfilling ADRRN’s mission for a safer Asia!
