Getting to use IEC materials will help teach and prepare pupils around the school in rural spaces so that we can prepare students on how they can respond to emergencies and disasters

We need governments to do intense research on these disaster and emergencies and prepare because rural schools are rarely prepared and they suffer the most from disaster as they are most unprepared already ill-equipped
