Recently, with the support of the China Social Welfare Association, the "Community Little Disaster Reduction Officer" child volunteer training project sponsored by the Leshan Civil Affairs Bureau and the Leshan Charity and Social Work Promotion Center was successfully implemented in the city.
Relevant data show that 26 million people in China have different degrees of burns and scalds every year (of which children account for more than 30%), and burns and scalds leave children with lifelong injuries. Therefore, it is urgent and realistic to popularize children's burn prevention safety knowledge, effectively protect children from accidental injuries, and improve the public's safety awareness of burn prevention and first aid ability.
Leshan Shancheng Volunteer Association, together with Xujiabian Community, Baita Street Community, Longhong Road Community and Shepherd Boy Parent-Child Paradise, takes "child safety and science popularization" as the core, and carries out "stay away from hot little monsters" children's classroom to outdoor science popularization and education activities, so that children can learn and remember the knowledge and skills of the 5 steps of burn prevention and scald first aid in edutainment, and set up a "I am a Little Disaster Reduction Officer" children's volunteer service team, aiming to "let children serve children", so as to achieve " One less, one less burner;One more, one more happy family".
The social worker of Leshan Shancheng Volunteer Association took "Away from the Hot Little Monster Children's Classroom" as the guide, and led the children through interactive experiences such as "** cartoons, scientific experiments, and sitcoms", so that the children could master the knowledge of burn prevention and the 5-step emergency response skills of "flushing, taking off, soaking, covering, and sending" first aid, and finally formed a 12-person "Children's Volunteer Service Team" through continuous group exercises.
Subsequently, under the leadership of social workers, the children of the "Community Little Disaster Reduction Officer" Children's Volunteer Service Team went out of the community and carried out popular science education activities in shops, squares, parks, communities and other gathering places, so that the children changed from learners to communicators, and publicized and popularized the basic knowledge of burn prevention and the 5-word mantra of burn prevention through the distribution of brochures to residentsAt the same time, through the distribution of "temperature stickers, balloons" and other publicity materials, more residents were invited to become burn prevention knowledge disseminators, this action has been widely praised by the society.
Through this activity, the "child volunteers" have become qualified "community disaster reduction officers" from learning to preaching, they have mastered safety knowledge and skills, and cultivated children's sense of social responsibility and participation, and at the same time let more people understand the importance of preventing children's burns, which will play a positive role in social attention to "preventing children's burns".
