Disaster Preparedness and Response Challenges cum Multi-media Competition Award Presentation Ceremony

To increase public awareness on disaster preparedness and response, the Hong Kong Jockey Club Disaster Preparedness and Response Institute (HKJCDPRI) launched a drawing competition for primary school students in Hong Kong in 2016, which attracted a total of 333 submissions. Participating students had demonstrated both their creativity, and knowledge on individual preparedness for disaster risks in Hong Kong.  

 

An award presentation ceremony cum community educational event – “Disaster Preparedness and Response Challenges” was held in Lok Fu Plaza on 2 October 2016 to close the competition. On top of that, the Fire Services Department, Civil Aid Services, two project partners of HKJCDPRI - ‘The Silence’ and ‘Amity Mutual Support Society’ had set-up interactive educational activities and game booths to disseminate disaster preparedness message to the general public.

 

Winners of the drawing competition, together with other outstanding “Disaster Preparedness Ambassadors” attended the ceremony with their families and friends.
