As part of activities of "Safe School" program of Plan Haiti, funded by the Swedish International Development Agency, was held of training sessions on risk analysis and preparation for the evacuation, with sixty schoolchildren, teachers and school principals in many schools of the Northeast, including the École Nationale mixte, located on the route of the free zone in Ouanaminthe.

Besides the theoretical dimension, this training included a practical phase which consisted of evacuationexercises in case of disaster in the walls of several schools.

Brigadiers of the Civil Protection (DPC) have taught the children to recognize the different emergency alerts (church bell, ambulance siren etc...) in order to conduct a rapid evacuation of schools. In addition, they conducted first aid simulation in case of serious injuries among schoolchildren. They took the opportunity to test the knowledge of children by asking them questions about resuscitation, threats, risks and other aspects, tests the children have successfully passed.

Recall that a thirty schools from the three departments (West, Northeast and Southeast) receive training of Program of Plan Haiti in partnership with the Civil Protection Directorate.
