The City of Cape Town’s Disaster Risk Management Centre is tightening its public awareness campaign by introducing a community-based educational theatre programme in informal settlements across Cape Town.

City of Cape Town’s Portfolio Head, Charlotte Powell says the Disaster Risk Management team will use interactive theatre to raise awareness in communities that are at a high risk for the outbreak of fires through the ‘Protect yourself against fires’ campaign.

The campaign will offer a range of practical tips to lessen fire hazards and to ensure that communities are ready for unforeseen emergencies and disaster situations.
