AFL Nepal: consultative meetings held
Community level consultative meetings held on Nov 14-15, 2014 with community people separately at Chakrabahil, Prayagpokhari, Hakha and Tangal locations of Lalitpur-12. Community people and representatives of Tole/Lane Organizations, Mothers’ Group and also school teachers and students took part in identifying local priorities for resilience. The purpose of such consultative meetings have remained to interact and gather ideas for Disaster Management Committee (DMC) to develop plan of action that should fit in Ward level periodic plan and many specific programs such as AFL and others being implemented in the Ward!
Conduct awareness raising activities is first need to motivate people to take needful action. Knowledge and skills on fire safety has been identified one key element to integrate in planning focusing to household women and people working in their workshops. Enhancing local capacity on emergency response is another key element highlighted. Community people are also suggestive to place safety messages in public places and mobilize community volunteers for propagating simple ideas on risk identification and mitigation measures. School in the community found very much willing to work together with community on this cause. DMC is to compile suggestions and facts gathered to distill more concrete plan of action.
