About

The Parent’s Guide is part of a three-book Compendium on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) focused on introducing disaster preparedness and response concepts to teachers, students, and parents. It emphasizes the importance of involving the entire school community in building resilience and encourages parents to engage with their child’s school and community for improved disaster preparedness. The guide provides ideas for family preparedness, supports children's psychosocial well-being, and suggests exercises for parents to aid in their child's psychosocial recovery post-disaster.
