Why should the local church help in disasters? Explore what the Bible says, meet Stanley and his pastor, involve volunteers and form a disaster committee.
Help Stanley and the disaster committee identify risks and resources, facilitate inclusive community group discussions and prioritise actions.
Help the disaster committee respond to an emergency scenario, by using needs assessment tools, communicating well and identifying recovery activities.
Following the disaster, help the disaster committee identify changes to their context, mitigate future impacts and learn from their response.
Learn how people respond to traumatic events, how the local church can support wellbeing, and about five intervention principles.
It not only provides the solutions, but also involves practical life situations enabling the learner to have better comprehension on how the local church can deal with disasters.
Videos are excellent. Running story of Stanley is entertaining and fun and makes learning enjoyable!
What I like about this course is the fact the participants are carried along from the scratch through practical activities… With the help of this course, engaging communities in disaster management and mitigation won't be a difficult task to do.
The course was practical as it shows the particular communities, people, natural disaster issues, process and selection of committee who are related with their given task. It visualises how the problem can occur and how we can deal with it.
