The Pacific Tsunami Museum: Saving Lives through Education and Awareness

太平洋海嘯博物館:以教育和意識拯救生命

 Tsunamis are an ever-present reality to all who live on the Hawaiian Islands, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. They have killed more people in Hawaii than all other natural disasters combined.
 In Hawaii, over two generations have grown up without ever having experienced a major tsunami, such as the ones that occurred in 1946 and 1960. Coupled with the fact that many new residents have migrated -- particularly to Hawaii Island, the general public understands very little about them. There are many misconceptions about what a tsunami is, including its hazards and risks. Many people are complacent about the dangers and the potential for loss of lives and the devastation that could occur.
 The primary mission of the Pacific Tsunami Museum is to promote tsunami education and awareness and this goal is accomplished through a blend of science, history, and survivor stories.
 This presentation will outline the importance of education and awareness and the various methods the Pacific Tsunami Museum employs to accomplish these goals which include group presentations, the development of the Hawaii Tsunami Education Curriculum Program, Tsunami Awareness Month activities, training programs for the media, the publication of guidebooks, and public lectures and workshops. The museum also extends its reach beyond its walls with national and international outreach including conference presentations, interviewing survivors from various tsunami events, networking and training local officials to carry out tsunami evacuation drills, meeting with tsunami researchers and preparing exhibits for other tsunami museums around the world. Also covered will be the challenges facing the museum, (a non-profit organization,) and the importance of collaboration with similarly aligned organizations and agencies.

  對處於太平洋中央的夏威夷島居民而言,海嘯是曾經發生過的事實。海嘯在夏威夷奪走的人命總數,比起其他天然災害的總合,還要來得多。
  在夏威夷,已經有超過兩個世代的成長歷程中,不曾歷經過像是1946年和1960年這般的大海嘯,加上有許多新住民,使得一般大眾對於海嘯所知有限。有許多關於海嘯的錯誤觀念,包括它的危害與風險。許多人都輕忽了海嘯的危險性以及可能發生的潛在生命損失與毀滅性。
  太平洋海嘯博物館的主要使命,就是在提倡海嘯教育和意識。這個目標是經由混合科學、歷史、與倖存者故事來達成。
  這個演講將會提綱挈領敘述教育和意識的重要性、以及太平洋海嘯博物館為達到這些目標所採用的不同作法,包括團體簡報、夏威夷海嘯教育課程方案、「海嘯意識月」活動、媒體訓練方案、指南手冊出刊、與公共的演講和工作坊。博物館也以許多方式將觸角延伸到國家與國際間,包括研討會發表、與不同海嘯事件的倖存者訪談、聯繫並訓練地方公部門實施海嘯教育演練、與海嘯研究者會議、以及協助世界上其它海嘯博物館策展。這個演講同時包括博物館(一個非營利組織)將面臨的挑戰,以及與相似組織機構結盟合作的重要性。
