Progress on Ratchaburi Power Plant’s project to enhance community capability in disaster prevention and mitigation
In 2019, Ratchaburi Power Plant together with Ratchaburi Provincial Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office launched a project to enhance the disaster prevention and mitigation capability of 6 communities around the power plant. Together, they worked on disaster prevention and mitigation plan or a community emergency plan, applying the Community Base Disaster Risk Management practices. The project was aimed at addressing the communities’ need and enabling them to prevent disasters and rehabilitate the impacts. The communities took part in the project from the beginning, from sketching the plan to preparing actions to assist their members and rehabilitate the impacts. The project ably raised awareness on safety and uplifted community safety standards, which improved their resilience to risks and impacts.
In 2020, Ratchaburi Power Plant organized a safety training session by the power plant’s safety officers professional level; as well as a talk and workshop on disaster prevention in community level, Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for life saving, evacuation rappel line, rescue from high grounds and extinguisher of household and community fire presented by Ratchaburi and Suphanburi provinces’ Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office for 54 community leaders and community members as well as disaster prevention and mitigation officers from Tambon Pikunthong, Tambon Ban Rai, Tambon Ban Singha, Tambon Samruan and Tambon Tharap and the power plant’s security officers.
