Disaster risk communication shapes people's perceptions of risk and influences their decisions to prevent and mitigate harm from disasters. It also influences the intervention decisions that are made throughout the disaster management cycle. The global frameworks on disaster and development have stressed to strengthen the utilization of media, including social media, traditional media, big data and mobile phone networks to support national measures for successful disaster risk communication, as appropriate and in accordance with national and international laws.
The training course is designed to help participants understand disaster risk communication principles and to apply them to disaster risk reduction.
