Development and effectiveness of an educational program on earthquake preparedness for mothers with infants in a metropolitan area: A randomized controlled trial

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Aim: Mothers raising infants play a crucial role as primary stakeholders and decision-makers in disaster preparedness. However, there is insufficient education about household disaster preparedness targeting such mothers. Proper preparedness by mothers for emergencies significantly impacts the health and survival of the mother and infant. Enhancing stakeholders’ disaster response capabilities may effectively increase resilience at the household and community levels. This study enables mothers raising infants to operationalize their disaster preparedness through educational interventions.
