The project will benefit Hoi An city, Dien Ban, Duy Xuyen, Thang Binh, Tam Ky and Nui Thanh districts, which are severely affected by natural disasters.

The project, which will end in 2015, will provide students and coastal residents with basic knowledge on disaster prevention through training courses and extracurricular programmes.

It was jointly implemented by SEEDS Asia, a Japanese non-governmental organisation, and the provincial Department of Education and Training and Department of Agriculture and Rural Development./.
