What are the role of students in managing the disaster in the or neighourhood?
Asked by SilkyKaur
Students have a major role to play in managing disasters. They can:
- Spread awareness about disasters and tips to handle them.
- Organise mock camps in their holidays in neighboring villages to train people to cope up with disasters like earthquakes
- Be part of 'emergency rescue teams' - mostly the training goes side by side along with 'compulsory military training' programs (another opinion: search and rescue is a highly specialized job and should be left to professionals)
A big aspect of disaster management is preparedness.
The basic role of the student is AWARENESS of what to do during and after disasters. This would lessen panicking, paranoid and uncontrollable people running around. Knowing what to do when disaster strikes will also lessen the death toll. Knowing what to do after disaster, and at least basic first aid, will enable students help the authorities in saving lives.

How do i say How are you in Switzerland?
Asked by Wiki User
in Switzerland, they speak Swiss German. I think "Wie Geht's?" (informal, to a friend), or "Wie Gehen Sie?" (formal, to a stranger)
they are pronounced "Vee Gates" or "Vee Gayen Zee"
Answer #2Not completely correct... I will not indicate rumantsch (a 100% latin derived Swiss language). The other languages are German, french and Italian... all having their own Swiss dialect forms (but dialects are not used for official writing).There is the difference if you know someone or if you don't...
Italian: come stai (friend), come sta (stranger) - "how do you stay..."
french: comment ça VA (informal)
tu v'as bien? (friend), vous allez bien? (stranger) - "aller" means "to go"
German: wie geht's dir? (friend), wie geht's Ihnen? (stranger) - "how does it go for you?"
The "wie gehen Sie" would have the meaning of "how do you walk" (stranger) and this would really be a question about the way someone walks :)
swissgerman is most time very close to German... but with slight differences among the regions...
wie geit's dir, wie gat's dir (friend) - wie geit's ihne, wie gat's ihne, wie geit's euch, etc. (stranger)
