Comment by Justin Sharpe on September 14, 2011 at 9:24am The text below was included with the YouTube video and I think shows the simple and clear message that children and youth learned and applied when needed.
Tsunami tendenko (津波てんでんこ, lit. tsunami scatter) = a way to escape from tsunamis, passed down in Sanriku district (三陸地方) engulfed by huge tsunamis after the earthquake at March 11. The word tells: when tsunami hits, scatter and escape without any regard to your parents and brothers to avoid the annihilation of your family. As result it's the quickest way to escape and the best way most of you survive. For 10 to 30 minutes until tsunami comes, escape or die.

As a geographer I was intrigued as to where our visitors and users of Edu4DRR come from, so I made this list! With flags too! Do we need groups for the more popular countries? What do you think?

This beautifully made documentary investigates children's experiences of the Japanese tsunami and nuclear disaster. It will be of real interest to anyone who works in the field of child-centred disaster risk reduction. The children articulate their experiences with great insight and in doing so, they further challenge the notion that children are passive victims of disaster who must rely on adults to speak for them.
