The district government of Raja Ampat, West Papua Province held a socialization on disaster preparedness for partners who are members of the Disaster Preparedness Cadets or Tagana.
Head of the Natural Disaster Section at the Raja Ampat Regency Social Service, Abraham Rumbewas in Waisai, Saturday said that the socialization activity was intended to prepare Tagana members and the general public on how to respond to disaster situations.
This socialization is so that Tagana members and the community prepare themselves from an early age when a disaster actually occurs, they immediately go to the field to carry out efforts to deal with the disaster.
How to deal with disaster victims quickly, how to evacuate victims safely, how to build public kitchens, how to collect data in the field, and how to escort aid for disaster victims.
It is said that Raja Ampat is an archipelago where geographical conditions and population distribution are separated by large islands and small islands. This is a challenge in itself in providing services related to disaster emergency response.
Efforts to deal with disasters in archipelagic areas must be determined to strengthen commitment and work together by strengthening supporting institutions and facilities.
Participants in this socialization were 100 people consisting of 75 members of Tagana and related OPD, BPBD, Basarnas, Border Office, Satpol PP, and Education Office represented by teachers consisting of SD, SMP, SMA and SMK.
It is hoped that after this activity, the participants will be able to understand the material provided by the speakers so that later this material will be disseminated to the community in the villages.
