The Pacific Coalition for the Advancement of School Safety is an initiative in support of the Sendia Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and the Worldwide Initiative for School Safety. The workshop aims to bring partners together from Ministries of Education and National Disaster Management Offices to share experience and good practice in improving School Safety across the Pacific. This includes ways to make all school facilities structurally safe and able to protect children during disasters (including at times acting as shelters for communities), to ensure appropriate school disaster management practices are effectively implemented, and that risk reduction and climate change education is taught in schools in order to build a culture of safety in schools and in communities.
