Disaster, as defined by the United Nations, is a serious disruption of the functioning of a community or society, which involve widespread human, material, economic or environmental impacts that exceed the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources [1]. Disaster management is how we deal with the human, material, economic or environmental impacts of said disaster, it is the process of how we “prepare for, respond to and learn from the effects of major failures” [2]. Though often caused by nature, disasters can have human origins. According to the International Federation of Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies a disaster occurs when a hazard impacts on vulnerable people. The combination of hazards, vulnerability and inability to reduce the potential negative consequences of risk results in disaster [3].

We pay attention to the infrastructure but we forget that the real infra is our children.
Schools are the places where parents send their kids thinking that they will be at safe places and in safe hands. Are they really in safe hands and at safe places? Do we have trained teachers? Do our schools have disaster management plans. Better late than never !This is an attempt to save lives!
