On May 11, the opening ceremony of Hefei's week-long campaign for National Disaster Prevention and Reduction Day was held in Gugeng Park, Feixi County.
May 12 2021 is the 13th National Disaster Prevention and Reduction Day. This year's theme is "preventing and resolving disasters and guaranteeing safe development". Hefei announced that May 8—14 would be the publicity week of disaster avoidance and mitigation. The Municipal Disaster Reduction Commission required government departments of all levels to organize disaster prevention and relief drills to comprehensively enhance the awareness and ability of disaster risk prevention. The opening set up a disaster prevention and mitigation achievements display area, a disaster prevention and mitigation equipment display area, an emergency rescue drill demonstration area, and a disaster prevention and mitigation interactive publicity area to show the achievements of disaster prevention and mitigation work of member units of provincial, municipal and county level disaster reduction committees since the 13th five year plan. The interactive publicity has enriched the audience's knowledge and improved their ability of self and mutual rescue. In recent years, Hefei has made great efforts to strengthen the capacity building of disaster reduction and relief, and has made progress in all aspects, effectively ensuring the safety of people's lives and property and the healthy development of economy and society.
