Kathmandu, September 25 The US Embassy, in partnership with Nepali Army, concluded the fifth annual Disaster Management Awareness Programme on September 20-21. Participants included the US Embassy Office of Defence Cooperation, US Embassy Civil Military Support Element, Kathmandu Institute of Science and Technology, and the Nepal Ambulance Service. Every year Nepal is subject to earthquakes, landslides, and floods affecting significant portions of the population. The DMAP, funded by the US Embassy, provides tools for future health care providers to reduce risk prior to a disaster and better prepares them for post-disaster medical management.

This year, the Disaster Management Awareness Program was designed to expose the third and the fourth year medical and nursing students of Kathmandu Institute of Science and Technology, to large scale disaster response training. Doctors and medical professionals from Nepali Army, KIST, US Civil Military Support Element and the Nepal Ambulance Service provided disaster management and preparedness training to more than 80 participants, said a press release issued by the embassy.
