The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction highlights children as among the most vulnerable groups who must be empowered to get ready for natural hazards and play a vital role in preventing and reducing risk.
Launched on the occasion of the 2018 World Tsunami Awareness Day, the child-friendly booklet is for kids who are 6-12 years old to generate tsunami awareness among children through animated characters and simple but strong messages. The booklet provides relevant tsunami facts and explains both how to identify a tsunami and how to cope with one.
