Abstract

The article focuses on the relationship between civil defense concepts and educational objectives. It becomes imperative, at the time of any threat to the national security, that the schools should intensify their efforts to accomplish their goals, while assuming the additional responsibility of developing the qualities and characteristics, in pupils, needed in such an emergency. Schools are making efforts for achieving goals such as, the personal development, growth, and learning of the individual; the improvement of human relations in the family and in the wider social environment. Resource materials on civil defense are made available to educators through workshops, extension and summer courses, conferences, educational journals and other publications.
