About the Event

On 29 May 2024, "Disaster Awareness Training" was held at Tokat 26 June Atatürk Culture Palace. A wide range of participants from public personnel to geological engineers, civil defence experts to teachers attended the training. Primary school assistant principals, secondary and high school social studies and geography teachers, non-governmental organisations, representatives of tradesmen, mukhtar representatives and many people from other professional groups took part in the training.

In the training, especially the topic of Disaster of Tokat Province was discussed. Since Tokat is located in a geography open to seismicity and landslide risk, the participants were informed in detail about the natural disaster potential of the region and the measures to be taken against it.

Within the scope of Disaster Awareness Training, the things to be done before, during and after natural disasters were explained in detail. During the training, disaster planning, risk management and social resilience were also emphasised.

The training programme was considered as an important step towards the goal of creating a society prepared against disasters by aiming to increase both individual and social awareness.

While it was emphasised that such trainings should be held regularly for the people of Tokat and related professional groups, the participants expressed their satisfaction with this programme.
