The above study, the outcome of the Mapping of Global Disaster Risk Reduction Integration into Education Curricula consultancy undertaken by Fumiyo Kagawa and David Selby for UNICEF and UNESCO from September to December 2011, has just been published.
The 207-page publication captures key national experiences in the integration of disaster risk reduction in the curriculum, identifying good practice, noting issues addressed or left unaddressed. The study reviews DRR-related curriculum development and integration, pedagogy, student assessment, teacher professional development and guidance, learning outcomes and policy development, planning and implementation aspects covering thirty countries.
