Sayyid Saud bin Hilal al Busaidi, Governor of Muscat patronised on Tuesday the 4th edition of the National Campaign to Raise Awareness on the Risks of Climatic Conditions and Tsunami Waves at the Muscat Governor's office in Muscat.
Organised by the National Emergency Management Centre in cooperation with the Civil Aviation Authority, the Ministry of Information, the Civil Defence and Ambulance Authority, Muscat Governorate and the Ministry of Education, the three-day campaign aims to enhance public understanding of the National Multi-Hazard Early Warning Centre and provide clear guidance on appropriate actions during emergency situations.
Through training programmes and interactive activities, the campaign aims to boost community readiness and improve individual response capabilities when facing emergency situations.
Target groups include representatives of public and private sector entities, civil society organisations, and volunteer teams. The programme features key components such as meetings, seminars, practical exercises, participation in governorate-level events, the release of educational materials, and an accompanying awareness exhibition.
Oman continues to prioritise national preparedness for tropical cyclones and tsunami risks.
This campaign underscores the importance of strengthening a culture of awareness to ensure timely and effective response during emergencies, reducing both human and material losses. After launching in coastal governorates, the campaign will continue across various governorates of the Sultanate of Oman.Oman Observer is now on the WhatsApp channel. Click here
