“The ACE Programme provided a good foundation for disaster
management and also for training leaders from the youth. We got the experience
how to utilise disaster management systems not only from the ASEAN region but
also from the UN. Another advantage from this program is we built trust and
good friendship among ASEAN NDMOs so it can be smoother and more cooperative
when we are operating and solving problems relating with disaster management.
The ACE Programme helped me be more effective and efficient in my field and
also it became a good foundation for me when I taking my Master’s Degree on
Disaster Risk Management at Kobe University.”
