In an effort to broaden awareness about disaster risks in Antigua and Barbuda, the National Office of Disaster Services (NODS) has unveiled a permanent display at the National Public Library.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The National Disaster Risk Reduction Knowledge Management and Display project was done through funds provided by the European Union (EU) and the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA).<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Visitors to the library will be able to get disaster information on hazards that affect the country while navigating a kiosk and browsing through various educational materials. According to Projects Officer at NODS Delamine Andrew-Williams, the goal is to continue uploading more information to the kiosk.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Another section will be installed for children so they can learn about the importance of disaster management in Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>

She says the library was chosen because of its central location which makes it easily accessible to children and adults.<\/p>\n

As part of the initiative, some employees at the public library were engaged in a training session on Wednesday that introduced them to basic disaster management, mass casualty management, disaster telecommunications and hurricane chart tracking.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Director at the Public Library Ryllis Mannix said she was pleased that the facility was selected as a hub for disaster management information on behalf of NODS.<\/p>\n
