This is a project in which children will learn the importance of human lives and how to cope with the effect of natural disasters such as Earthquakes, Volcanic Eruptions, Wildfires, Floods, Hurricanes, Landslides, Tsunamis, Droughts and so on through the collaboration with global friends. This year, the project will focus on the relationship between natural disasters and environmental problems such as the problems with water. Our ultimate goal is to create a safer place to live in for everyone in this planet. To achieve this goal, students will create the Disaster Safety Map of their schools surrounding areas. These maps will be put together our website and will become 'The Global Disaster Safety Map'. The project NDYS will continue; We have the NDYS 2008 in Trinidad and Tobago.
