SEE: Safeguarding Educational Environment

Children under the age of 18 comprise more than 25% of the EU population. In their lifetimes they may spend more than 2340 days in schools, making imperative that schools and school districts must be prepared to protect students safety and to manage the complicated, multi faced issues that arise when disaster strikes. This data clearly show that education has a pivotal role to play in the reaction of the Community to the disasters consequences. In Europe there are many projects addressed to prepare students, teachers, volunteers, school staff in case of disaster. Some of these projects are innovative and interesting. However, it is very difficult to disseminate and share their results, being, in most cases, developed at local and regional level. So, it’s quite difficult to use the results as lessons to be learnt or good practices to replay in other contexts.
