    Thinking Out of The Box

    The document discusses getting out of our boxes to build disaster-resilient communities through education. It proposes forming regional alliances and providing an infrastructure to deliver timely information, knowledge, and technology to at-risk communities. This would include establishing a knowledge base, building capacity through identifying and nurturing champions, and continuing education through innovative learning experiences and updating knowledge after disasters. It also recommends using different thinking perspectives ("hats") and styles of action ("shoes") to strategically seize opportunities for disaster risk reduction.
