Disaster and safety education programmes carried out separately by each agency
and ministry will be integrated into a mandatory and systematic disaster andsafety education and training programme. Legislative mechanisms are to bedeveloped for disaster and safety education and professional training.
All the government officers need to go through basic DRM trainings which aredesigned for fresh officers to senior executives and offered by Nepal
Administrative Staff College. The trainings can be effective forum as an entry point
for government officials to develop their understanding about DRR.

Limitation of resources and competencies of key sectors in DRR is still the major
hindrance for Thailand’s DRR. To acculturate safety mind and disaster awarenessinto local context,

IndiaMore investment is required on research and knowledge management. Targetedintervention for children with special needs as well as those covered through nonformal education system
