Welcome
Access to education is a basic human right. It is one of the Millennium Development Goals and there is a strong drive to implement it. However in the rush to fulfill the right to education , are children being put at risk. In common with other infrastructure , school buildings are subject to damage and collapse in earthquakes . In the recent past children and teachers have died at school in such disasters.Also thought provoking are the near misses.
School Earthquake Safety Initiative , Shimla is an effort towards ensuring seismic safety in schools.SEEDS through its school safety initiative is committed to nurture a generation that is sensitive to crisis situation and demand a safer sustainable future.The initiative is part of a larger agenda of creating a disaster resilient community envisioned by SEEDS
