隨着網絡及各類新媒體普及，市民每天於不同的平台上接收大量的訊息。然而，資訊氾濫的同時，很多消息的來源及真確性往往無從稽考。事實上，每逢天災、人禍、瘟疫等，各地都會出現各式各樣的假消息，不止引發民眾恐慌或搶購潮，更會阻礙救災或抗疫工作。
取得正確的資訊，能大大提升公眾以至前線救援人員在評估風險、和制定應對措施的成效。因此，教研中心將舉辦兩場《預防及應對災難之「Fact Check你要識！」》網上講座，旨在分享事實查證的態度與技巧，加強各界人士分析和處理資訊的能力。所有參與者將獲頒出席證書一張，而每場首100名於出席網上講座後填妥「會後網上意見表」的參與者更可獲咖啡禮券乙張。機會難得，萬勿錯過，請即報名：https://forms.gle/bUugALzMqjchchfZ8

Safety is the first priority
Safety is the first priority in event management. Recent major emergency incidents such as the terror attack in Manchester Arena, concert fire in Oakland, and bombing in Boston Marathon, etc, served as painful reminder of the ever-present threat in any live mass event. The need of continuous assessment of risks, as well as developing and implementing up-to-date emergency plans are essential for effective response to all kinds of emergencies including man-made and natural disasters. Event safety does not rely only on the event organisers and emergency responders but also the general public, the government and industry stakeholders.

Asia-Pacific Region suffers the highest number of disasters across the globe. As Hong Kong is a key member in the region and one of the most densely populated cities in the world, both its public health and education sectors should play pivotal roles in disaster preparedness and response.
The Collaborating Centre for Oxford University and CUHK for Disaster and Medical Humanitarian Response (CCOUC) and the Hong Kong Jockey Club Disaster Preparedness and Response Institute (HKJCDPRI) jointly organised the Train-the-Trainer Programme on Disaster Preparedness and Response for Secondary School Teachers. The programme aims to enhance community resilience and promote disaster awareness in Hong Kong by strengthening the secondary school Liberal Studies curriculum.

The programme aims to enhance community resilience and promote disaster awareness in Hong Kong by strengthening the secondary school Liberal Studies curriculum.
The train-the-trainer programme was kicked off on 13 October 2015. Professor Emily Chan, the Director of CCOUC, delivered the first training entitled “The Relationship between Disasters and Public Health Using Hong Kong as a Case Study”, which was well received by course participants. Topics such as common disasters in Hong Kong, myths of disasters, disaster preparedness and responses were discussed.
Teachers from various secondary schools showed their interests in incorporating these topics into the current Liberal Studies curriculum, and would help distributing learning booklets prepared by CCOUC to their students. CCOUC believes that secondary school teachers are important agents to disseminate the crucial messages of disaster preparedness to the younger generation and their families.
In the coming year, the programme will introduce three more topics, namely, "Environmental Hazards and Public Health Responses in Hong Kong", "Infectious Diseases and Epidemiology: Why is the Threat of Infectious Diseases Growing?", and the "Impact of Globalization on Climate Change and Population".
