Islamabad: Disaster management show on Oct 8
ISLAMABAD: National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) will organise a two-day disaster management exhibition and conference on third anniversary of the October 8 earthquake.

Devastating earthquake in 2005 had played havoc with North West Frontier Province (NWFP) and Azad Jammu and Kashmir killing thousands of people. Since the tragedy, October 8 is observed as National Disaster Awareness Day and many activities are held to share the lessons learnt during relief and reconstruction process that followed the earthquake, an NDMA official told this news agency.

“The exhibition, alongside the conference, is an exercise to show the products, equipment and technology so far available in Pakistan to help in disaster,” he said. “Many firms and industries are likely to showcase their relevant products in the exhibition,” he added.

One of the prime objectives of the exhibition is to initiate a process of public-private partnership in the field of disaster awareness and mitigation, he said.

Besides the conference, some other programmes have also been chalked out to create awareness and better understanding among government officials, political leaders and society at large, the official said. app
