On Tuesday, October 13, the City of Mamoudzou is observing National Resilience Day with a series of events aimed at raising awareness about flood risks in the area of M'tsapéré. From 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., a resilience village will be set up in the local fish hall, featuring several stands managed by organizations such as the Red Cross, Cadema, Deal, and the municipal administration. These stands will provide information on natural risks, prevention tools, and appropriate behaviors to adopt in the event of a disaster. The goal is to educate the public and improve preparedness for potential emergencies. In addition to the village, a sensitization hike is planned from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. along the Majimbini River. This activity will take place in an area that is especially vulnerable to flooding during heavy rainfall, allowing participants to learn more about the local geography and the risks it poses. The hike aims to highlight the importance of understanding and respecting the natural environment to reduce disaster risks. Meanwhile, several local associations will be conducting awareness campaigns at the premises of the Mayotte Inter-Associative Network (RIAM) in Doujani. These events are part of a broader effort to promote a culture of risk awareness and preparedness throughout the region. By bringing together different stakeholders, the organizers hope to strengthen community resilience and improve the response to natural disasters. The overall objective of these activities is to better prepare the residents of Mamoudzou and surrounding areas for potential natural disasters. By increasing public knowledge and fostering a culture of preparedness, the city aims to reduce the impact of future emergencies and ensure the safety of its inhabitants.
