PR CALENDAR FOR APAC

World Tsunami Awareness Day was established by the United Nations General Assembly in December 2015, with its date set for November 5th each year. The day aims to raise global awareness of tsunami risks, promote prevention and disaster reduction strategies, and mitigate the catastrophic impacts of tsunamis on coastal communities. Its background stems from the profound lessons learned from major disasters such as the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.

Its significance lies in emphasizing the importance of early warning systems, community preparedness, and international cooperation. Historicy, Japan, due to its frequent experience with tsunami disasters, played a key role in advocating for the establishment of this commemorative day. Common commemorative activities include: hosting international conferences, conducting public education campaigns, carrying out tsunami evacuation drills, sharing best practices and scientific knowledge, and raising public awareness through media campaigns.
