Essentials of Inclusion of Natural Disaster Management in Teacher Education Curriculum
Natural Disaster Management essentially deals with management of resources and information relating to a disaster event and is measured by how efficiently, effectively and seamlessly one coordinates these resources. At the individual and organizational level deals with issues of planning, coordination, communication and risk assessment. It deals with all humanitarian aspects of emergencies, in particular preparedness, planning, response and recovery in order to lessen the impact of disaster. “Natural Disaster Management” can be defined as the range of activities designed to maintain control over disaster and emergency situations and to provide a framework for helping at-risk persons to avoid or recover from the impact of the disaster. Disaster management deals with situations that occur prior to, during and after the disaster. The teacher “Architecture of Nation” is a dynamic force of the society. A society without a teacher is like a body without a soul, a skeleton without flesh and blood, a shadow without substance. As a social engineer, he socializes and humanize the younger generation by the man-like qualities. Inclusion of natural disaster management in teacher education curriculum enhances the teacher trainee to equip and prepare themselves for natural disaster management. This helps in transforming the knowledge of natural disaster management to the future younger generation and to save the lives of living beings in the world.
