The Community Activity Planning is a workshop whereby the community leaders and local champions work together with DRR experts in selecting one or two DRR activities for the communities to implement under the SeDAR Program.

This process entailed (1) a group discussion on the feasibility of a range of potential DRR actions to implement, (2) shortlisted to a few strong potential actions, in order to (3) prioritize, identify and select one to two feasible activities.

As input to the discussion, a list of 15 suggestions for community action that was drafted during the community mapping session on February 26, 2023 was reviewed by the communities and the experts.

Out of this, the DRR experts and the communities identified two activities to be implemented under the SeDAR program:

  • Community education: Conduct a workshop on community slope monitoring for signs of landslides
  • School education: Carry out a DRR workshop for schoolchildren. Design and print a mural poster on DRR for display.
