This week the COPE team has been in Manila at the Asia-Pacific Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (APMCDRR) 2024 promoting the books, and to launch the new Tsunamis book.
This is Martha, Christine and Lina, in front of the COPE stand. Unfortunately Tim and I couldn’t be there, but I loved seeing all the busy pictures and hearing the stories of the event!
All the books, especially the ones translated into languages other than English, were highlighted and promoted.
The launch of the expanded Tsunami book commemorates the 20th anniversary of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, and brings vital tsunami preparedness knowledge to children and communities worldwide. We originally had a much shorter tsunami booklet, but this new version fits into the whole collection with an extended story section and more information.
Here’s the trailer for the book!
