HOW CAN YOU PREPARE CHILDREN FOR AN EMERGENCY SITUATION? For her master’s research, Nickola is focusing on emergency and disaster management, and exploring the use of Lego bricks as a participatory tool to engage children in disaster risk reduction research.
“What caught my interest was that this topic had never been researched before, and the fact that disaster risk reduction requires inclusive and equitable approaches that foster genuine participation of all members of society.” Nickola Loodin
