Co-Creating Educational Action to Protect Children After DANA Floods in Spain

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
On 29 October 2024, Spain suffered the impact of an Isolated Depression at High Levels (DANA) that caused severe human and material damage. As seen in cases of natural disasters of similar magnitudes, the impact on children requires sustained interventions, with educational communities being key settings for providing protection and accompaniment. Although numerous studies highlight the role of schools in preventing and mitigating the socio-emotional impact of natural disasters on children, the literature on concrete educational actions to address the consequences of flood disasters is limited. This study analyses the co-creation process of six actions developed between researchers and teachers from 18 schools in the most affected areas of Valencia. For this purpose, a communicative research methodology was used. The techniques used to co-create actions were six dialogic focus groups, one dialogical scientific gathering and one WhatsApp community with teachers affected by the DANA. The results provide information on the redevelopment of the following six evidence-based actions and their impacts in the first weeks after the DANA: (1) the mapping of educational communities; (2) the planning of dialogic gatherings; (3) the creation of solidarity networks; (4) the creation of optimal learning environments; (5) the preservation of violence-free networks; and (6) the giving of specific support to vulnerable groups. The study offers guidelines for educational practises in flood-related disaster interventions, focusing on enhancing community resilience.</span>
