Training Workshop on
Community
Based Disaster Preparedness for Risk Reduction
Date : 03-05 August 2017
Venue : Dr. Joseph Marthoma Camp-Research and Meditation Centre, Kombady, Thiruvalla
Invitation
Greetings
from URI South India and Sri Lanka Regional Office, Karickam Kottarakara!
We are
convinced that in this changing world, all are expected to be aware of the
climatic change and to participate in the mission of making people resilient to
the impact of hazards, that may lead to new disaster situation in non
conventional areas. Participating in the global mission of making this world
safer, Vishwa Yuva Kendra (VYK) and United Religions Initiative (URI) will be
organizing training workshop on Community Based Disaster Preparedness for Risk
Reduction.
Vishwa
Yuvak Kendra (International Youth Centre) is one of the pioneering
organisations of India and consistently working for in the area of youth
development for over five decades. VYK is a model centre for orienting the
nation’s youth and make them responsible citizens equipped with requisite
concepts and leadership qualities, so that they can contribute to the task of
nation building and act as agents of socio-economic transformation.
United Religions Initiatives (URI) is to promote enduring, daily interfaith cooperation
to end religiously motivated violence and to create cultures of peace, justice
and healing for the Earth and all living beings. Through this office we promote dialogue among
people of Living Faiths and ideologies and also to work for justice, peace,
communal harmony and social and spiritual well being of people irrespective of
their religion, caste, colour or creed.
The Cosmic
Community Centre, an NGO registered under the Travancore Cochin Literary, Scientific
and Charitable Society’s Registration Act XI of 1955, vide Reg. No. Q 632/04 is
a recognized Cooperation Circle (CC) unit of URI. The Cosmic Community Centre thus coordinates,
conducts and assists studies on various religions and burning social and global
issues like poverty, hunger, nuclear proliferation, and justice and world peace
through International Interfaith Conference in the Intertextuality Series,
which was started in the year 2005.
Why
this programme
Significant
changes are taking place in the climatic condition, resulting in the frequency
and severity of the related hazards increasing and spreading into the new
geographical areas of South India, especially in the state of Kerala. By and large, the people of Kerala are not
aware enough to cope with the climate
change impacted hazards. In order to create awareness and to develop essential
coping mechanism at grass root level in the area, we choose the theme “Community
Based Disaster Preparedness for Risk Reduction”. We expect participants mainly from Kerala
based NGOs; but will be kept open for selected participants all over South
India and Sri Lanka for this workshop. Selected members from NGOs mainly
disaster prone areas outside Kerala are encouraged to participate in this
workshop to have better impact through active sharing of their experience among
participants from not so severe disaster areas, like South India.
The venue of the
training programme will be at Dr.
Joseph Marthoma Camp-Research and Meditation Centre, Kombady, Thiruvalla. Thiruvalla,
is centrally
located and well connected with public transports both rail and road transport
systems available in Kerala. Boarding,
lodging and conference hall facilities are in the same compound.
Resource
Persons:
In addition to in-house resource persons, we will invites officials from Indian
Meteorological Department, Fire Force, State Disaster Management Authority
(SDMA), Environmentalists and other concerned from local government. We expect
officials from VYK.
The programme is rigorously
developed and will be addressed by experts in the field. Interactive methods
will be used in the programme to make it stimulating, participatory, enjoyable
and full of learning.
The training will be helpful to
beginners as well as professionals who want to make difference in their
life.
The
objective
of this camp is to create awareness among the grass root level community
members as representatives of NGOs/CSOs/CBOs and concerned local government

coexistence respecting each other and uphold human values.
