#56 - Avoidable Deaths Network: Taiwan Chapter

Summary:

This episode introduces the launch of the Taiwan chapter of the Avoidable Deaths Network (ADN), marking a new milestone in the global campaign for the International Awareness Day for Avoidable Deaths (IAD4AD). The initiative builds on Taiwan’s long-standing experience with natural hazards such as earthquakes, typhoons, landslides, and flooding. To celebrate the launch, a seminar will bring together local communities, educators, disaster risk experts, and government representatives to discuss preparedness and share experiences in reducing disaster-related risks and casualties.

The Taiwan chapter aims to strengthen collaboration between academia, local governments, and communities while promoting disaster risk awareness and education. Key efforts include translating the concept of avoidable deaths into Mandarin to make it more accessible locally, sharing knowledge from international partners, and supporting vulnerable groups such as children and older adults through disaster risk education. By connecting local initiatives with global knowledge, the chapter hopes to advance practical actions that help communities better prepare for hazards and reduce avoidable deaths.

Co-Hosts:
