With regard to the commemoration of the World Disaster Reduction Day with the theme of Women and Girls in Disaster Risk Reduction and International Rural Women Day, the Yakkum Emergency Unit (YEU) will hold a series of activities to engage and raise awareness of the community to eliminate the label of women and girls as only vulnerable groups and begin to give space to women's participation in DRR efforts. The series of events to be held are interactive discussions, campaign and training of turning plastic waste into crafts that will involve communities, women's groups, NGOs and the government.
