tsunami education programs

Tsunami education programs teach communities how to recognize signs of an impending tsunami, such as strong earthquakes or a rapid sea withdrawal, and emphasize the importance of quick action. These programs often include information on emergency evacuation routes, safe places on higher ground, and creating family safety plans. They aim to raise awareness, reduce panic, and improve response time during actual events, ultimately saving lives. Effective programs combine community drills, informational campaigns, and collaboration with local authorities to ensure residents are prepared and can respond confidently if a tsunami occurs.
