In PARA’s continuous efforts to enhance disaster preparedness and community resilience, we have launched a Mass Awareness Campaign in flood-affected villages. This initiative leverages the power of cultural performances and interactive sessions to effectively educate and engage local communities on essential flood safety measures.
Key Focus Areas of the Campaign:
✔ Preparedness of Emergency Bags – Guiding families on assembling essential survival kits, including food, water, first-aid supplies, important documents, and other necessities.
✔ Important Toll-Free Numbers – Providing quick access to emergency contacts for timely assistance during flood situations.
✔ Mental Preparedness for Families – Equipping individuals with strategies to stay calm, make informed decisions, and ensure safety before, during, and after a flood.
Impact So Far:
We have successfully conducted awareness programs in three villages—Thokalanka, Sathamalanka, and Aadankivarilanka—engaging and educating 140 community members. Through interactive performances, group discussions, and hands-on demonstrations, we are empowering families with critical knowledge to safeguard their lives and livelihoods. This campaign is a significant step toward building a well-informed and resilient community that can respond proactively to flood emergencies. We remain committed to reaching more villages and ensuring that every household is equipped with the necessary resources and information to face future challenges.
