DISASTER is everybody’s business and everyone has an important role to play.

Minister of Disaster Management Jone Usamate highlighted this today while officiating at the opening of the Fiji stakeholders meeting on school disaster risk reduction and building resilience workshop at the Fijian Teachers Hall in Suva.

He said the development of such policy was a reflection that the ministry was working in progress in building resilience in the education sector.

Mr Usamate also encouraged participants at the workshop to ensure that the manuals are simple to understand and straight forward to implement.
