The Report Lessons Learned from Child Led Disaster

Risk Reduction Project in Thailand

Save the Children Sweden and UK in Thailand

 

The Report “Lessons Learned from Child Led Disaster

Risk Reduction Project in Thailand” is a result of the efforts of the Save the Children Sweden and UK in Thailand to document the process, outcomes and lessons that we have learnt from implementing this six-month pilot project on Child-Led Disaster Risk Reduction in Thailand. This project is based on our belief that children can play an active role in community’s affairs such as disaster risk reduction, especially if they are appropriately trained and supported by adults.

Living with disasters and changing

climate is about children, disaster risk

reduction, and climate change. Based on

Save the Children’s experience in Child-centred

disaster risk reduction in Southeast

Asia, this book is a collection of children’s

stories and statements about their views

on disasters and climate change and their

impact on the children’s lives, and how they

can do something about it.
