Through this project, the NEMO will work with six schools (Three on mainland St. Vincent and three in Union Island) to develop Tsunami Hazard Plans. Union Island will be used as a pilot community to develop tsunami plans, evacuation procedures for the two primary and secondary schools along with signage throughout the community and mapping of possible scenarios for tsunamis. The project will also be piloted in the Rose Place Community through a partnership with the Iniversial Rastafari Community Organisation. |
