The National Disaster Awareness Week has been observed around the country since 1990 and is organized by the government annually.

“The week also provides the opportunity to strengthen the partnership arrangements involving relevant government agencies, the private sector, civil societies and the community in general on disaster preparedness,” said Ratu Epeli Ganilau Interim Minister for Defence, National Security and Immigration.

“The week provides the opportunity to showcase the various components of the disaster activities and programmes undertaken by other agencies also involved in disaster management,” he added.
