"The Guidelines contribute to mapping of flood and landslide risks by integrating climate change impacts at river basin level. It is expected that flood and landslide risks as well as associated vulnerabilities to extreme hydrological events are identified more easily by conducting the Guidelines"
“The project is significantly important. It brings real impact and benefit to the people, the town and district, giving them knowledge, hope and awareness on disaster risk and prepares us for potential devastating future encounters.”
“I am extremely pleased to see such great involvement from the communities, and exchange among ASEAN countries. I am very grateful for this platform”
“Though this marks the final stage of this project, the coordination and information sharing from the district to national, to ASEAN will continue. All those involved will continue to assist communities to mitigate, prepare for future disasters.”
“We have no advanced technology to detect or give early warning. Instead of using megaphones and speakers systems, Village heads would have to go around with their motorbike giving warnings alerts to villagers of on coming disasters.”
“ASEAN DRR-CCA provides a platform for ASEAN member countries to participate and to raise awareness, share knowledge on disaster risk reduction, policies, and activities to the participating countries. For me, it is a very good platform.”
“I hope that through this project, participating ASEAN countries will apply the guideline and knowledge gained. I hope there will be more future projects to provide ongoing on-site training because the fight against natural disaster and climate change will continue to grow.”
