For the past year we have also interacted with 850 school children in 13 rural schools. September 30 is the sixth anniversary of the last quake, and we want to organize an earthquake drill in various communities. We want to show to the government what can be done so that at least once a year people remember their loved ones that died and practice the drill to stay prepared. We do have some ideas as to what can be done, but we want ideas from those who have been practicing this in other rural and urban areas of the world. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
New proposals are welcome.
