We are using the International Disaster Response Network (IDRN) syllabus for Community Based Disaster Preparedness (CBDM). Partnering with Malaysian Care in Kuala Lumpur and NECF in Kuala Terengganu, more than 60 volunteers have equipped and ready to serve.

2 Basic Disaster Response Camp, MBS, Kundang (14th-17th September 2017).

It is such a joy and thanksgiving to see many nations have come together to share and learn from each other in our annual camp. During the camp, we have celebrated Malaysia Day with praises and prayers.

On behalf of CREST, we would like to express our thanks to all internal and external speakers, staffs, volunteers and all the participants for making this camp great and memorable! CREST couldn’t go further without your supports!
