Ministry of the Interior and Safety, Overhauls Disaster Training System Focused on Practical Exercises
Establishment of the Basic Plan for National Disaster Preparedness Training
The Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced on the 5th that it has established the "2023 National Disaster Preparedness Training Basic Plan," the highest-level plan for national disaster preparedness training, and notified disaster management responsible agencies such as central government ministries, local governments, and public institutions.
The main contents of this plan are as follows: First, the Disaster Response Safety Korea Training, which has served as the foundation of national disaster preparedness training for the past 18 years, has been reorganized to be field- and practice-oriented in order to maximize the disaster response capabilities of agencies.
Additionally, the ongoing training serves as a supplementary exercise to the Safety Korea Training, focusing on intensive mastery training by selecting areas that require a high level of response and recovery capabilities or fields that were insufficient during the response process.
Lastly, the focused training will introduce a tentative new disaster preemptive training to prepare for new types of disasters that occurred last year, such as flooding accidents in semi-basement houses, data center fires, and road tunnel fires, in addition to the existing children's disaster safety training.
