When the Earthquake 2005 hit Pakistan, NRSP instantly responded it with whatever resources and expertise it had to provide relief to the affected communities of AJK. These relief/rehabilitation operations have now eventually culminated into a well planned Disaster Risk Management programme. NRSP has done its first Community Based Disaster Risk Management - CBDRM - project in Muzaffarabad (Sep. 2007 - Sep. 2008) with a German-based NGO namely Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe. Under this project we established Disaster Management Committees (at Revenue Village level), identified volunteers and trained them in CBDRM, 1st Aid and in search/rescue operations during emergencies, provided Emergency Response Tool Kits, and so on.

One of the project activity was development of Educational Film to document and share the project interventions/learning within and outside NRSP. In this regard an education film has been produced and uploaded on YouTube as well.  

This educational film is split into two parts: Part 1 is in English with general audience like NRSP staff and other organizations etc. Part 2 is in Urdu and is specifically developed to train the communities. It (part 2) can be used as a training material to provide basic orientation in CBDRM to our CO/LSO members. Since both parts cover same project, many scenes overlap.
