| Descripción: | The approach adopted respects human rights, democratization of knowledge, and humanistic and humanitarian principles. The strengths, needs and conditions that make people living in a community vulnerable are considered in terms of gender, social class, ethnicity, migratory status, and physical and cognitive conditions. The training modules discussed in this manual take a comprehensive approach to the prevention, response, and attention to the effects of a tsunami, and are pedagogical instruments that can be used to promote collective actions and contribute to reduce the impacts of a natural threat of this type. A series of theoretical-methodological concepts from the social, natural and earth sciences are used in this approach, and The three modules presented in this Training Manual have been created with contributions from several disciplines including geography, oceanography, sociology, psychology, and law. The inter-disciplinary approach enhances the participatory methodology, including the use of multiple pedagogical tools and specialized information, the recognition of community actions, and the importance of engaging participants as agents of change in risk prevention. This Training Manual includes three training modules, composed of workshops. The first module introduces participants to the topics of risk, risk management, tsunamis and other key concepts. One of the main objectives of this first approach is to develop and use a common language and knowledge. In the second module, three workshops are presented which are aimed at strengthening technical knowledge and its application, based on the preparation of a Tsunami Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan. Finally, the third module includes a theoretical-practical workshop on community evacuation plans and protocols, with simulations and drills which incorporate psychosocial components of responses in the event of a tsunami. It is worth mentioning that all the modules are theoretical-practical and employ a horizontal and participatory methodology |
