In
order to enhance the preparedness, quick response, attention,
accuracy and awareness of relief team leaders of the Iranian
Red Crescent Youth as well as to generally increase the efficiency
and effectiveness in disaster management, the Iranian Red Crescent
organized its second forum of Youth Relief Team Leaders (Each
team includes 33 persons) in Khuzestan province in December
05.
Close to 900 team leaders, 441 men and 450 women, participated
in the forum. The training courses included psychological support
in disasters, management and leadership, emergency sheltering,
first aid, etc. The training courses (theoretical & practical)
were conducted with different methodologies such as sessions,
maneuver relief and cultural competitions. Visits to historical
sites in the province were also arranged.
The training aimed to increase the capacities, experience, and
skills of relief workers (volunteers and employees) in order
to improve the level of rescue and relief assistance and psychological
support offered during and after disasters. These areas of work
are considered the most important priorities of Iran Red Crescent
Society.
Alongside with this forum, an exhibition of relief equipment
and other related activities of the provinces was organized
which was appreciated by the participants. |
