3 1. Outline of GLOF Project
4 Background n Some of Asian countries have GLOF risk, and building measures are urgent. n There are many documents of GLOF, however it is not easy to recognize the mechanism and countermeasure of GLOF. n It is necessary to make handbook or brochure to explain local residents. n It is also important to share information and to building capability in regional level.
5 Cooperation Glacial Lake Outburst Flood Monitoring Working Group Information Sharing through SA Step2 Proposal for Satellite Application Field Survey IMJA Project Chubu Unv. Monitoring Imja Glacial Lake International Community ICIMOD* ADRC GLOF Project (Bhutan) ADRC** EWS Hazard Risk Mapping Capacity Building JAXA*** * The International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development ** Asian Disaster Reduction Center *** Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency Providing digital elevation data
6 GLOF project in Bhutan Term n FY 2010 FY 2011 Goal n n Sharing experience of countermeasures of GLOF in other area in Bhutan and other countries Strengthen capacity building concerning GLOF
7 GLOF project in Bhutan / Output n Development methods to develop hazard map. n Supporting capacity building of disaster risk reduction though workshop. n Making Countermeasure Manual of GLOF for Bhutan and other countries has similar risk.
8 GLOF project in Bhutan / Activity Gathering data Making hazard risk map Integrate sustainable early warning system Capacity development in school and community Making manual Sharing information
9 GLOF project in Bhutan / Inputs From Japan side (ADRC) n n n n n n Digital elevation data for making Topographic map (JAXA) Some simulation model for making hazard maps Flooding scenario Setting-up monitoring and EWS Town watching method International Workshop
10 Community Based Hazard Mapping ~Effective tool for raising public awareness~ Step 1 Field Survey Residents, Officers in Local Govt. and Experts survey the positive and negative features relating to the disaster risk by walking around in the town. Step 2 Develop a Map Visualize the observations and findings on the map. Enhance the awareness and cooperation through the task. Step 3 Discussion and Presentation What are the problems? Who is responsible? What are the countermeasures? Share the information.

27 Workshops for capacity building According to request from the principal of local school, project team conducted various activity for capacity building of government officers, teacher and students. Explanation about GLOF Hazard Map Basic Disaster Education Iza! Kaeru Caravan workshop Community based Rain gauge and River gauge
28 Workshops for capacity building Disaster Education Date: 24 Feb. (KHURUTHANG INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING) 2012 With Students Lectures on DM

33 4. Conclusion
34 [Opinions] Elder students well facilitated on the workshop. It seems that elder students teaching for younger students is effective as a way of disaster education. The principal of junior high school said they had this kind of disaster education first time and student would like to continue this activity. Department of Disaster Management (DDM) committed that they would like to conduct this activity not only in Punakha district but in all the parts of Bhutan. Participants motivation concerning disaster management activity was quite high. It is necessary to carry out these program continuously.
