Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, landslides, and hailstorms have become more frequent and dangerous in recent years, especially in developing countries like Nepal. School students of Bheemdatt municipality are at high risk of natural disasters, especially when they are in school and at home. This study focuses on Bheemdatt Municipality of Kanchanpur District. The main objective of the study was to assess disaster awareness and risk reduction knowledge among school students in Bheemdatt Municipality, Nepal. The research was conducted using both primary and secondary sources of data. A Simple random sampling method was used to select respondents. Data were collected through surveys and interviews conducted in 14 schools of which six were government and eight were private. The sampled schools represent different levels of disaster risk. A total of 110 students participated in the study, along with teachers and school principals. The findings indicate that the majority of students had acquired knowledge about disasters mainly through school textbooks, while other sources such as television, radio, and the internet were reported to be less frequently utilized. Among the types of disasters experienced, earthquakes, floods, and hailstorms were the most common in the study area. Many students understood disaster preparedness and mitigation, some remained unclear about the specific actions required before, during, and after a disaster. The study finds that strengthening disaster education in schools helps students gain a clearer understanding of disaster risk reduction (DRR). It emphasizes the crucial role of youth education in safeguarding lives and communities. Additionally, the study examines the current status of disaster education in Nepal and offers recommendations to improve community resilience through educational initiatives.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
