This workshop has been designed to help deliver professional development training activities to teachers and child care professionals to develop their knowledge and skills in:
- Preparing children both practically and psychologically for a potential natural disaster
- Assisting and protecting children during a natural disaster event; and
- Identifying emotional and behavioural difficulties in children following a natural disaster event.
The core outcome of the training is for educators to be equipped with the knowledge and skills required to promote resilience and coping, and decrease long-term adverse reactions in children (aged 0-12 years) following a natural disaster event.
