Emergency Coordination and Strategic Planning for Disaster Management

Before, during, or after any events of disaster, systematic disaster management is very important  in managing emergency and post-emergency situation. One way of disaster management is to adopt the role of civil society to create awareness, knowledge and thus lead to direct involvement in disaster risk management efforts. 
Emergency Coordination and Strategic Planning for Disaster Management is a workshop designed to disseminate the experience and knowledge gain from MERCY Malaysia's experience in responding to disaster situations, directly to the community. The aim of the workshop is to socialize the culture of disaster preparedness among the civil society in anticipating any disaster that might happen, and to provide basic disaster management training for the participants.
