Disaster Master
Bangkok: UNESCO Bangkok, 2007. Board game.
Disaster Master is an educational board game that conveys messages through answer cards to help students understand what natural hazards are and what actions can be taken to reduce their impact. The game covers six kinds of natural hazards: earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, landslides, volcanic eruptions and hurricanes. Coordinated by an Indonesian team under the “Education for Natural Disaster Preparedness in Asia-Pacific in the Context of Education for Sustainable Development” project, Disaster Master was developed in close consultation with Indonesian school teachers as a participatory educational material for secondary school students.
