Abstract

Disaster education is an important part of both social education and school education. However, research on disaster education in China only gained attention after the Wenchuan earthquake on May 12, 2008, and there have been only a few studies on disaster education in the past decade. This paper reviews the basic consensus reached by scholars on issues related to the basic theory and educational practice of disaster education, including the value of disaster education, the current state of disaster education in China, and the cooperation of multiple subjects in disaster education. In conclusion, there are still deficiencies in China’s disaster education, such as unclear basic theoretical issues, general research perspectives, scattered research content, and traditional research methods. Future research on disaster education urgently needs to draw on international experience and rely on Chinese cultural traditions to combine multidisciplinary theoretical research with comprehensive practical exploration to explore feasible implementation strategies for disaster education and strive to build a disaster education system and research system with Chinese characteristics to enhance the pertinence and effectiveness of disaster education.
