  • Disaster management, preparedness, and mitigation awareness and motivation: From this training SHG members learned about preparedness and how to reduce loss during a disaster.
  • Training on adaptation and mitigation strategy of climate change
  • Training for church leaders and youth: We organize training for the local Church leaders and youths to sensitize them on DRR and CCA. This training was organized to enhance their capacity so they can form a volunteer group and help the community during the disaster.
  • Works closely with UDMC on DRR and CCA issue: We organize quarterly training for the Union Disaster Management Committee members to make the committee more functional through enhancing their capacity. We also establish a network between the Group members and UDMC so they can work together during Disasters for the betterment of the community.
  • Train Youth and students from the early warning and rescue team: We trained Youth and students through our student and adolescent clubs on early warning and rescue. During the Disaster members of these teams are joint work with the Red Cross volunteer and Upazila team to provide early warning and rescue people.
  • Tree plantation: Every year we provide trees to our group members and encourage them to plant more trees in the community to reduce Disaster risk.
